Summary

1.The Cold Summer sees the introduction of a new hero by Carofiglio. Fenoglio is a conflicted, melancholy man, vulnerable yet strong enough to take on the worst of organized crime.2.Top of the Italian bestseller lists for 4 months. Carofiglio has sold over a million copies of his novels in Italy. The English language editions have exceeded 60,000 copies sold and Carofiglio is Bitter Lemon’s bestselling author.3. Carofiglio is a master storyteller and an elegant writer, capable of deep insights into human nature; but he also has an incomparable experience as a prosecutor, specialized in organized crime. Every single detail of his work is a revelation for the reader, about legal and police procedure, but also brimming with charm and philosophic insight. Told largely through the medium of verbatim testimony, this novel offers an unnerving look at human vulnerability and chilling suspense, driving readers into the mysterious space between fact and fiction.4. Other titles by Carofiglio include Involuntary Witness (Rhegium Lulii Prize), A Walk in the Dark (Roman Librarians Prize), Reasonable Doubts (Tropea Prize) and Temporary Perfections (Selezione Campiello Prize). All were published by Bitter Lemon Press. The first two were made into films broadcast on Italian television.
