3 posts | 2 read | 4 to read
The shady Hotel of the Three Roses is home to an assortment of drunks and degenerates. Inspector De Vincenzi receives an anonymous letter, warning him of an imminent outrage at the guest house, and shortly after a macabre discovery is made--a body is found hanging in the hotel's stairwell. As De Vincenzi investigates, more deaths follow, until he finally uncovers a gothic and grotesque story linking the Three Roses' unhappy residents to each other. This intensely dramatic mystery from the father of the Italian crime novel, Augusto de Angelis, features his most famous creation--Inspector De Vincenzi. From the Trade Paperback edition.

Reading this crime fiction written in 1930s Italy. Characters' histories are like a different world.

Written by an Italian novelist in the thirties this was my #impulsebuybook this week! I'm hoping for an Italian gothic Agatha Christie, has anyone else read any of the Inspector De Vincenzi mysteries? #augustphotochallenge @TheSpinecrackersBookClub

This is the second book in this series that I've read and I liked this just as much as the first. If you're into fast paced crime novels with a crime that isn't too easy to solve, then you should definitely check these books out.
