Together with his indefatigable partner, Brigadier Maione, Ricciardi, a man driven into solitude by his paranormal "gift" of seeing the final seconds in the lives of victims of violent deathsâa talent that also makes him a highly effective investigatorâis conducting an investigation into the death of the beautiful and mysterious Duchess of Camparino, whose connections to privileged Neapolitan social circles and the local fascist elite make the case a powder keg waiting to explode. 377 pages.
