Recruited by the villa's owners, Stephanie and Gerry, Francis's students include snooty, irritating Poppy and her ex-ambassador husband Duncan, eccentric Northern Irishman Liam, quirky, self-styled 'Hampstead Jewess' Zoe, bossy Scottish Diana, kooky young American Sasha, mysterious 'spy' Tony and restless civil servant Roz. But what should be a magical week under the Italian sun turns into something far more sinister when one of the group is found dead, and the local police quickly turn to Francis for help. Uncovering betrayal, lies, secrets and old scores to be settled, Francis soon realizes something very dark is lurking beneath the genteel and civilized veneer..." -- $c Publisher description. 600 10 $a Meadowes, Francis $c (Fictitious character) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Creative writing $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $z Italy $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Umbria (Italy) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 2 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909060004.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20200402010435.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=48AA602274A711EA8EBE956E97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
