By now il morto was clearly suffering, but he struggled on, pausing frequently to gasp for breath before tackling another stretch of the scorched rock on which the soles of his feet left bloody footprints.Aurelio Zen’s final case brings him to remote town of Calabria, at the toe of Italy’s boot, on what is supposed to be a routine assignment: the death of a scout for an American film company. But the case is complicated by a group of dangerous strangers who have arrived to uncover another local mystery – buried treasure – and who will stop at nothing to achieve their goal. The case rapidly spirals out of control, and Zen must penetrate the code of silence in the tight-knit community in order to solve the crime.If you enjoyed the Inspector Zen Mystery series you may also like The Last Sherlock Holmes Story, another crime novel by Michael Dibdin.

“L'admirable cathédrale, restaurée, rapiécée, éreintée, est vraiment une grande chose morte, un gigantesque sépulcre. Elle se dresse encore en beauté sur le fleuve avec ses contreforts et ses béquilles. Tel fragment de ses assises émeut toujours par sa force : on croirait ces pierres issues du sol, et c'est en nous le même sentiment de vénération que devant un arbre de cinq cents ans au milieu d'une clairière. Telle sculpture aussi enivre par sa beauté délicate, le sens de la vie qu'elle manifeste.” L’écrivain, journaliste et historien de l’art Gustave Geffroy (1855‐1926) propose ici une promedade de deux heures sur les deux îles au coeur de Paris. Livre publié à l’occasion de l’exposition au Louvre sur Notre‐Dame de Paris, automne 2023.
