Death and the dolce vita

Description:

By the 1950s, Italy was in the process of reinventing itself and becoming one of the most glamorous places on earth. But the murder of Wilma Montesi exposed a darker side of Roman life--a life of corruption, cover-ups and carnal pleasures. It was a crime that the newspapers, the public and one particularly determined detective wanted to get to the heart of.
