Críticas

Praise for Maurizio de Giovanni's Commissario Ricciardi series

"Naples in the early 1930s is the setting for Maurizio de Giovanni's "Nameless Serenade" (World Noir, 397 pages, $18), a series book (translated impressively from the Italian by Antony Shugaar) whose intense opening chapters approach the operatic. [...] These romantic, suspenseful and political strains interweave and resolve in superbly artful fashion." --Tom Nolan, Wall Street Journal

"Love, longing, and loss suffuse [Glass Souls], de Giovanni's elegiac, autumnal eighth Commissario Ricciardi mystery." --Publishers Weekly

"This is a wonderful series, and I highly recommend it to mystery lovers, as well as historical noir." --Pulp Den

"Reading a novel by Maurizio de Giovanni is like stepping into a Vittorio De Sica movie." --The New York Times

"De Giovanni has created one of the most interesting and well-drawn detectives in fiction."

--The Daily Beast

Reseña del editor

A Commissario Ricciardi Neapolitan mystery that packs a real punch.

Years ago, Vinnie Sannino left Naples on a ship bound for America, where he found fame and wealth as a boxer. But his gilded life in the new world came to an abrupt end when, during a fight, with a heavy punch to the head of his opponent, Vinnie killed a man in the ring.

Now, Vinnie's back in Italy, pining for the woman he left behind. Cettina, however, is now a married woman. She was, at least, until recently when her husband was found dead, killed by a single blow to the head. For Commissario Ricciardi, one of the most faceted cops in fiction, and his partner Maione, it is a going to be a long, rainy, week in Naples.
