Mehso-so

This is the third and final novel in the De Luca trilogy and unfortunately it was a bit of a pass for me. It picks up a few years after the second novel, and the cliffhanger from that novel is not fully explained. De Luca has been demoted to the vice unit in Bologne where he again falls into a homicide case. While the politics of the time are interesting, the plot felt weak and it also ended on a cliffhanger with no further books in the series.
