Murder on the Tiber: An Italian Murder Mystery (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome Book 8) by P.J. Mann

 

Murder on the Tiber: An Italian Murder Mystery (Book 8) by P. J. Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the 8th book in this series but each book is independent of the others. It's helpful to read them all to get a glimpse of what makes Commissario Scala tick and operate the way that he does. I've thoroughly enjoyed this series and I'm looking forward to what P.J. Mann will entertain us with next!

This is a fairly short read that goes along pretty quickly. You'll get sucked into the story within the first couple of pages and before you know it, the story is over! The suspense and action is all set in Rome and will keep you guessing whodunit right up until the end.

Leaving No Traces (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome) by P.J. Mann

 

Leaving No Traces by P. J. Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4.5 stars

If ever there was a need for a detective, I could only hope they'd be as dedicated and determined as Detective Scala!!

He's at it again, trying to sort out who is behind the disappearance of a woman last seen in a service station buying cigarrettes. All they have so far is her car and a lot of questions.

As Detective Scala digs into the case, he learns that his victim is involved in a couple of affairs. This makes his suspect list even longer than he originally thought. Also, everyone he interviews comes across as cagey and hiding information.

However, after a bunch of twists, turns, and adventures, along with a mandatory vacation, Detective Scala is able to cuff the appropiate people involved in this case.

Another very well written and entertaining mystery by P.J. Mann!

The Secrets they Hide (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome) by P.J. Mann

 

The Secrets they Hide by P.J. Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is my first read by this author and I'm looking forward to reading more by her! This is the second book in a series but was easily read as a standalone. I'm going to go back and read the first book in this series though!

This book held me from the beginning and didn't let up until the end. It's a riveting police procedural featuring a setting in Rome. What could be more interesting than a murder in a place known for their love? Just when you think you might have "whodunit" figured out, more plot twists and turns come up that will have you on the edge of your seat until the end.

Very enjoyable read!
