The Forger and the Thief

Five strangers in Florence—a wife on the run, a stolen art researcher, a cunning cleaner, a nearly retired policeman, and an unwelcome wedding guest—are caught in a web of secrets amidst a looming apocalyptic flood. As the historic city faces rising waters, they race against time to protect themselves and uncover hidden truths, in a story filled with lies and deception. Set against the backdrop of the 1966 Arno River flood, this clever crime narrative explores the dangerous secrets concealed beneath Florence’s surface.
