Murder in the Tremiti Isles

Saru's thrillers, #1

She, the other and death…

A rich and fascinating tourist from Bologna is brutally murdered while she enjoys her holidays in Tremiti Isles. It is up to the investigators of the Operative Department of Foggia to find out who is the author of this heinous femicide. The Salento reporter Rosario Saru Santacroce decided to switch off for a week enjoying the fantastic atmosphere of the Tremiti Islands. But that fiery July reserves him a surprise. For the umpteenth time, his holidays are shaken by that work that engulfs all the energies. A real reporter is destined (almost) never to unplug, and that is probably why he gets entangled in the murder. For this reason, Saru will undress the shoes of the vacationer to wear those of the reporter hunting for news. Saru is enjoying the last night at the Tremiti Isles when the murder is committed and he will be the first to rush to the scene of the crime on the island of San Nicola. At that moment, the frantic hunt for news will start that will lead him to clash with the investigators but also with his woman. The former do not like journalists and live in secrets, the latter is jealous of that work that does not give her the opportunity to be the center of attention. The painstaking work of the carabinieri will allow revealing the author of the crime and the motive. It will thus be discovered that the charming and enigmatic tourist from Bologna was killed by that who had sworn to love her. And to find the killer will be another woman, the prosecutor who coordinates the investigation.
