| Summary |
"The body rolled off the planks and slipped into the water with barely a splash, quickly embraced by the steady current flowing toward the city of Mantova. It comes to rest against rocks overlooked by the grim ramparts of Castello di San Giorgio as the river Mincio flows on towards the Po and the Adriatic Sea...Rick Montoya, an American from New Mexico self-employed as a translator in Italy once again puts his linguistic skills to use for the local law in solving a crime." --adapted from Amazon.com. |

When a body of an elderly fisherman comes to rest against rocks overlooked by the grim ramparts of Castello di San Giorgio, it turns out to be murder. Rick Montoya, an American self-employed as a translator in Italy, is asked to assist as an interpreter to Angelo Rondini, cousin to the dead man. Before his death, Roberto Rondini owned a parcel of land that is now the focus of a fight for control, and the investigation into Roberto's murder reveals rivalries and secrets from the past. -- adapted from jacket blurb. |
