The Monster of Florence

Douglas Preston 2008

Devastation Rating

true crime Italy serial killer corruption

Our Take

Preston went to Florence to write about a serial killer and ended up being investigated himself by a prosecutor who may have been more dangerous than the monster. The book peels back layers of Italian justice, conspiracy, and paranoia until you no longer know who to trust.
