A Taste for Murder

£9.99

For Detective Chief Inspector Joe Mottram, a summer on the island of Capri was meant to be an opportunity to reconnect with his troubled teenage daughter, Angelica, and his Italian in-laws, after his wife’s Francesca’s death by a hit-and-run. But when a British tourist is found dead and a member of his late wife’s family is accused of murder, Joe is pulled back into a world of police cells, crime scenes and local corruption. As he discovers more about the island, he realises it holds the answers to Francesca’s death, which may not have been a tragic accident after all.

THE IRRESISTIBLE DESTINATION THRILLER, NOW A MAJOR TV SERIES STREAMING ON ITV

‘A cracking crime procedural’ The Courier

‘Capri makes an irresistible setting for crime fiction’ THE TIMES

Scorching hot summer. Cold-blooded murder . . .

The Italian island of Capri – a slice of paradise and childhood home of widowed DCI Joe Mottram’s late wife. It’s the perfect place to bring his teenage daughter Angelica, where her grandparents run Da Vinale’s beach restaurant.

When a British tourist’s body is found nearby, Joe is asked to liaise with local detective Lara Sarrancino. Which means saying arrivederci to his holiday – because this is no accident.

Worse, Lara is stubbornly asking questions at Da Vinale’s. Might the family restaurant be serving up more than delicious food?

Is murder on the menu?
