Twenty years after the events of 'Relative Values', Englishman, Paul and his Italian wife, Rosa have been living happily in Florence for nineteen years when a dinner invite to Rosa's younger sister leads them into a dangerous world where political corruption and organised crime meet.
'He thought of all the times he'd despaired at the lack of real action being taken against the general level of self-interest, exploitation and corruption in Italian public life, and railed against the left's inability to stop squabbling amongst itself and do something concrete about putting things right. '
As in his previous novel, Phil Whitney has rooted his story in real historical events: there are links to the P2 conspiracy, the Neapolitan Camorra, the Calabrian N'drangheta and a discredited parliamentary committee which attempted to smear leading figures in the country's left-wing and centre-left parties.
