I guardiani della laguna
Venezia, 1753. Durante il carnevale Marco Leon, agente segreto dell’Inquisizione di Stato, indaga su un duplice delitto avvenuto nel teatro Sant’Angelo durante la rappresentazione della Locandiera di Goldoni. Le due vittime, un giovane patrizio e un attore della compagnia, sono apparentemente prive di legami. Ma il doppio omicidio è solo una coincidenza? O si tratta di due pedine che fanno parte dello stesso gioco? E quale può essere il ruolo di una delle famiglie più importanti di Venezia in questa vicenda? A mano a mano che le indagini procedono, tra interrogatori, inseguimenti in gondola e agguati, il caso assume tratti sempre più complessi e pericolosi. Grazie a un intu...

The Jews in Genoa
These volumes of the "Documentary History of the Jews in Italy," illustrate the history of the Jews in Genoa and surroundings from Antiquity to the French Revolution. The earliest documentary evidence takes the form of letters from King Theodoric. For the Middle Ages the documentation is relatively fragmentary and sporadic.

Through a Glass, Darkly
A New York Times–bestselling series: A murder mystery set on Italy’s secretive island of Murano, renowned for its world-famous glass. On a luminous spring day in Venice, Commissario Brunetti and his assistant play hooky from work to help a friend, Marco Ribetti, arrested during an environmental protest. They secure his release, only to be faced by the fury of the man’s father-in-law, Giovanni De Cal, a cantankerous glass factory owner who has been heard in the bars of Murano making violent threats about Ribetti. Brunetti’s curiosity is piqued, and he finds himself drawn to Murano to investigate. Is De Cal the type of man to carry out his threats? Then one morning the body of De Cal’s night watchman is found. Over long lunches, on secret boat rides, in quiet bars, and down narrow streets, Brunetti searches for the killer . . . “One of the best of the international crime writers.” —Rocky Mountain News “[A] superlative series.” —The New York Times Book Review

Leon whips up a brilliant narrative storm' Sunday Times When Commissario Brunetti receives a visit from one of his wife's students with a strange and vague interest in investigating the possibility of a pardon for a crime committed by her grandfather many years ago, he thinks little of it, despite being intrigued by the girl's intelligence and moral conscience. But when the girl is found stabbed to death, Claudia Leonardo is no longer Paola's student, but instead becomes Brunetti's case. Claudia seems to have no discernible living family, but lived with an elderly Austrian woman. When she in turn is found dead, the case begins to unlock long buried secrets of collaboration during the war, secrets few in Italy are happy to explore . . . 'Wholly engrossing' Evening Standard
