Publisher's Summary

When a beautiful college student is found murdered in the catacombs beneath a monastary, Captain Natalia Monte of the Carabinieri is assigned to investigate. Could the killer be a professor the student had been sleeping with? A blind monk who loved her? Or perhaps a member of the brutal Napali criminal organization, the Camorra? As Natalia pursues her investigation, the crime families of Naples go to war over garbage-hauling contracts; and all across the city heaps of trash pile up, uncollected. When one of Natalia's childhood friends is caught up in the violence, her loyalties are tested, and each move she makes threatens how own life and the lives of those she loves.

good

Second time listening to this one. I remember not being terribly enthused about it, but actually, it's quite good. The characters are well developed and interesting, and you can't help but feel invested in Natalia and her friends.The way that Naples is written, though, is the real draw, here. You can practically smell it.
The solution to the crime was kind of out of nowhere, but... it still made sense.
I also appreciated how the victim evolved throughout the book, going from sympathetic to, well, not, in a believable way.
