NOT a stand alone!
Frankly, I would recommend this one only for Trotti fans. I found it highly confusing, as it's more a collection of subplots (threads) than a specific narrative. I'm not an Italophile, so in addition to keeping track of which plot we were dealing with in each chapter, I found it tough to keep track of the characters. Narration was a bit of a challenge for me, as there were voices for each person, but they were done in a sort of "hard boiled" English manner, which sometimes slightly distracted me from the fact that these are Italian characters.

Dreadful
I normally love crime stories, and in particular those set in Italy, but not this one. I had to keep pushing on in order to finish it. The story is repetitive and very predictable. Just don't bother.
