Le conseguenze del male

(The Consequences of Evil)

Ugo Guanda Editore, April 2024, pp.450

Chief Inspector Mandelli and Inspector Casalegno return, this time in a sultry Milan, where they have to contend with sudden abductions and apparent suicides, but, as ever, they will stop at nothing to discover the truth.

It’s a scorching August for the men and women of the Violent Crime Analysis Unit. In a sweltering, semi-deserted Milan, unspeakable crimes come to light and old ghosts resurface. What do the apparent suicides of some women conceal? What mystery connects them? And where are their children? As Chief Inspector Mandelli interrupts his holidays to follow the clue of one of the abductions, which concerns him closely, two policewomen uncover an abyss of horror and imprisonment.
