Reviews
“An engrossing mystery…the complex, plausible plot is peopled with authentic characters, most notably the wry, pot-smoking, disillusioned Rocco, who was born and raised in Rome...His conversations with colleagues and suspects are sprinkled with wit and astutely shed light on Italy’s political and cultural conundrums. Readers will hope to see a lot more of Rocco.” — Publishers Weekly“Chiara’s story torturously elongates time as readers suffer her bewilderment and pain, hanging on for rescue as the pages turn. This plot point alone is worth the read, with Schiavone and his hapless colleagues a bonus. A next-read for those who enjoy Donna Leon’s Commissario Guido Brunetti series and Louise Penny’s Armand Gamache novels.” — Booklist“The development of the characters themselves was what really made this novel for me. Every character, every conversation is humorous, sarcastic and witty ... if you want a thriller but also want a light read, some adult humor to lighten your day you absolutely. must. read. this!!!...A next-read for those who enjoy Donna Leon’s Commissario Guido Brunetti series and Louise Penny’s Armand Gamache novels...Engrossing ...” — Lit Hub/Book Marks“Out of Season is another electrifying entry in Manzini’s series. Readers may find similarities between Aosta and Louise Penny’s Three Pines, a place where everyone knows everyone and knows everything about everyone.” — The Strand Magazine“Best International Crime Fiction of October” — CrimeReads“A thriller novel as chilling as its snowy cover…Manzini gives the reader a detective who has personality and humor…The result is dramatic and arresting. I would recommend Out of Season for readers in search of a well-woven crime thriller.” — Reading and Literature Resource Blog
