Inspector Moretti

Inspector Moretti Series 2 By Costanza Bruno Between the Tarot and Death

Nestled along the Ligurian coast, Marello's sunlit piazzas and winding cobbled streets hold an allure that belies its darker truths. Beneath the postcard-perfect charm lies a world of corruption, smuggling, and secrets buried as deeply as its history. Commissario Marco Moretti, now finding his footing in his late father's shadow, is no stranger to Marello's hidden undercurrents. But his latest case will test him like never before.

When a celebrated fortune-teller is found dead in her own flat, clutching a tarot card marked The Tower, Moretti is plunged into a labyrinth of cryptic clues and dangerous players. As whispers of smuggling rings and corrupt officials grow louder, every clue seems to lead him back to Dragana Kovac-a figure with ties to Marello's most influential families and to a world Moretti is only beginning to understand.

With his sharp-witted partner, Detective Claudia Ricci, by his side, Moretti must navigate a treacherous maze of lies, betrayals, and the ghosts of his own past. The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes: this is no ordinary murder. The cards seem to be dealt against him, and someone in Marello is determined to keep their secrets at any cost.

In this second instalment of the Inspector Moretti series, fate and justice collide in a gripping mystery where every clue is a step closer to danger, and every shadow hides a new truth.
