The Sleeping Nymph

Teresa Battaglia, Book 2

By: Ilaria Tuti, Ekin Oklap - translator

Narrated by: Christina Moore

In the highly anticipated follow-up to Flowers over the Inferno, Superintendent Teresa Battaglia returns for a chilling cold case. After 40 years on the Italian police force, the once-brilliant criminal profiler is flagging under the wear of the job when a decades-old murder investigation lands on her desk. DNA analysis has revealed that a painting from the final days of World War II contains matter from a human heart. Teresa is able to trace the evidence to Val Resia, one of Italy's most isolated, untouched regions.

When Teresa's investigation hits too close to the truth, a fresh human heart is hung at the valley's entrance, a warning not to cross its threshold. As she hunts a ruthless killer, Teresa must face down her own rapidly deteriorating physical and cognitive abilities, as well as someone she hoped never to see again - a man who has just become her supervisor.

Looking forward to more!

Enjoyed Flowers over the Inferno but this one was even better! Both the characters and setting are unique and interesting. Great story too! More please!

We learned everyone’s pasts!

We learned everyone's pasts, and they left room for a new mystery/next book. I'm excited for the next one and to see how long Teresa can keep her secret.
