Fog Over Brianza: Shadows from the past

By Ivano Pezzoli

A body found in the snow. A tangled past. A village that would rather forget.

When entrepreneur Giorgio Raineri is found murdered in front of the decaying Villa Castoldi, Maresciallo Enea Cortesi immediately senses something is wrong. The killing is not just a brutal act - it's a message. And in Brianza, messages often echo through land deeds, factory gates, and ancient family grudges.

Together with Brigadiere Merisi, Cortesi follows a trail of local silences, hidden documents, and half-truths passed down through generations. The investigation leads deep into a web of corruption, industrial tension, partisan memory, and the fragile coexistence between past and present.

As snow falls and shadows stretch across a changing land, Cortesi must ask the questions no one dares voice:
Who benefits from silence?
And who dies to protect it?

Shadows in the Fog is a gripping Italian mystery set in the heart of Northern Italy, where memory is political, land is legacy, and no one is ever truly innocent. Perfect for readers of European noir and fans of mysteries grounded in history and place.
