Description
Three bodies . . . A dark secret . . . And one woman determined to uncover the truth. When the police do nothing to solve the murders of three women knifed to death in 1866 Sicily, a struggling widow attempts to unmask the killer, but not before uncovering shocking truths of her own.
Summary: At a high-class house near Palermo, three women have been knifed to death, their foreheads slashed with a strange mark, their bodies dumped on the madam's doorstep. Rosa summons her friend, Serafina, and asks her to catch the killer. A thirty-something midwife with seven children and diminishing funds, Serafina plunges into the investigation. In a defiant meeting with the don, she makes an important discovery. Convinced of the murderer's identity, she conceives a daring plan to unmask the killer. Does she succeed? Can she hold her family together?
