Cosi Fan Tutti is the fifth book in the Inspector Zen series from the 'maestro of crime writing', Michael Dibdin, set in the heartland of the Italian Mafia, Naples. Now a major TV series on BBC One from the producers of DCI Banks and Wallander featuring Rufus Sewell.
Posted to Naples – at his own request – Aurelio Zen is more than content with his life. At work he comes late and leaves early. His staff are loyal and he ensures that they have a vested interest in being so. He has a strong friendship with a lady of many charms, Valeria Squillace, who knows him as Alfonso Zembla, an accidental pseudonym that is proving invaluable. And then, in a way that our unconventional policeman could not have anticipated, everything falls apart.
A knifing, a series of vanished persons, a lost American, suspected Mafioso, a plot to destroy two romances and, finally, Aurelio’s missing mother, all come together to shatter his comfortable new life.
Michael Dibdin is in sparkling form in 'Cosi Fan Tutti', twisting his plot with panache.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. An Aurelio Zen NovelMichael Dibdin's overburdened Italian police inspector has been transferred to Naples, where the rule of law is so lax that a police station may double as a brothel. But this time, having alienated superiors with his impolitic zealousness in every previous posting, Zen is determined not to make waves.Too bad an American sailor (who may be neither American nor a sailor) knifes one of his opposite numbers in Naples's harbor, and some local garbage collectors have taken to moonlighting in homicide. And when Zen becomes embroiled in a romantic intrigue involving love-sick gangsters and prostitutes who pass themselves off as Albanian refugees, all Naples comes to resemble the set of the Mozart opera of the same title. Bawdy, suspenseful, and splendidly farcical, the result is an irresistible offering from a maestro of mystery. Overburdened Italian police inspector Aurelio Zen is transferred to Naples and is soon embroiled in a romantic intrigue involving love-sick gangsters and prostitutes, in this bawdy, suspenseful, and splendidly farcical offering by a maestro of mystery.
