May You Burn

In the Italian city of Naples, senior police officer Captain Natalia Monte is called to investigate the theft of a painting from the medieval Church of San Domenico Maggiore. No sooner is the investigation underway than the city is rocked by a much graver crime: the murder of a talented and much-loved female violinist, known across the city and beyond.

As Captain Monte and her fellow Carabinieri interview close friends and family of the victim, they sense all around them the dark forces of Naples' organised crime bosses, the Camorra. It seems that anyone could be a suspect and as Monte struggles to keep her professional and her personal dealings from becoming dangerously intertwined, the plot reaches a dramatic conclusion. This book provides a thrilling read and effectively contrasts the serene beauty of Naples and the surrounding area with its gruesome and violent underworld.
