The Lizards Bite
Nic Costa's and Gianni Peroni's exile in Venice is finally drawing to a close. And the Roman detectives' last case, an apparently accidental fire that has claimed two lives, should be a straightforward affair.

Soon Costa and Peroni become embroiled in a dangerous investigation into the shadowy, claustrophobic world that lies beneath Venice's sparkling facade - where the usual rules do not apply ...
