TROPPO FREDDO PER SETTEMBRE

From Neapolitan bestselling novelist Maurizio de Giovanni comes a new captivating story, an investigation told through the tones of comedy, and the return of a fresh and already beloved female character: Mina Settembre.

Introduced in 12 ROSE A SETTEMBRE (Sellerio, 2019) Mina is back: a force of nature, beautiful and indomitable, Mina Settembre is a 40-year-old social worker with a solid vocation, operating in the notorious and fascinating setting of Quartieri Spagnoli in Naples (the historical part of the town, its most energetic and chaotic district). In this new book Mina, who after the divorce lives with her unbearable mother, gets involved in the suspicious death of an old and solitary literature professor. Was it a murder? Or a suicide? The main suspect is a young man who has just come out of prison and who belongs to one of the most powerful criminal families in the neighborhood. But the most obvious solution could be the wrong one: Mina, together with a vivid group of characters - her colleague (and secret crush) Mimmo, her ex-husband, the magistrate investigating the case, and her three closest friends - does not hesitate to get into troubles to discover the truth, following her strong sense of justice. With the adventures of Mina Settembre and this new series that RAI and IFF are producing for TV, de Giovanni writes a self-ironic farce as much as a dark crime novel.
