‘Lively writing and colourful characters make for an entertaining read. And although the fifth in the series, it’s easy to pick up the background.’ FOUR STARS

Shelley Orchard, SA Weekend

The fifth Leone Scamarcio thriller by CWA-longlisted rising star Nadia Dalbuono.

When Leone Scamarcio investigates the murder of a boy with demonic possession, who will win: Scamarcio or the Devil?

When Detective Leone Scamarcio is called to investigate the death of a young man in Rome, he soon finds himself at the centre of a conspiracy involving occult practices, murder, church and government corruption, pharmaceutical dirty dealings, family secrets, and, of course, his old friends, the Mafia.

As he circles closer to the truth, the danger mounts, and when his family comes under threat, Leone Scamarcio will have to decide once and for all what he really stands for.

‘The Devil by Nadia Dalbuono has everything a good page-turner should possess: murder, conspiracy, secrecy, corruption and the mafia.’
