The next Rome book makes an early entrance
Fans of Nic Costa in the UK can now expect a second book during 2007 after the sellout of the latest title, The Garden of Evil, in the first week of publication. The next in the series, Dante’s Numbers, will now go on sale through Pan Macmillan in the UK on October 3, 2008, to be followed in April 2009 by the US edition from Bantam Dell.
The novel begins in Rome, at the world premiere of a movie based on The Divine Comedy. After one of the leading actors is murdered, and another attacked, the story then moves to San Francisco for the remainder of the book. The narrative covers some well-known and less familiar locations in Italy and California, from the tiny Cinema dei Piccoli in the park of the Villa Borghese in Rome to the districts of Cow Hollow and the Marina near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.
You can read my thoughts on the origins of the book, and view some photos of the locations, in its section on this site.
