Crime, innocence, guilt. The underworld, the police, corruption. Morality, love, maternal affection. Immigrants, organized crime, the passion for personal success. Niccolò Ammaniti, in collaboration with Antonio Mancini, writes about a surgeon with very strange habits. Andrea Camilleri about a love story that ends - alas! - very quickly. Massimo Carlotto about where the death of an informant can lead a policeman. Carlo Lucarelli about a woman who can do everything but take off her bra. Sandrone Dazieri about comedians who get involved with murderers. Giancarlo De Cataldo about a dark fairy tale featuring a child, a dog, and a homeless immigrant. Diego De Silva about a Neapolitan family story centered on terrorism. Giorgio Faletti about a chilling show starring a mysterious TV guest. And Marcello Fois takes us back to a classic crime. Each with their unique style, the greatest contemporary Italian crime writers parade in a book that has been one of the biggest commercial successes in Italy in recent years.
