Synopsis

The fourth installment in the Rocco Schiavone mystery series from the international bestselling author, Antonio Manzini picks up three days after his last novel, Out of Season, left off, as Rocco seeks revenge for a friend—and closure for himself.

Rocco is still reeling from the death of his best friend’s girlfriend, who was murdered as she slept in his bed. There’s no doubt that she was in the wrong place at the wrong time and paid the ultimate price. With the identity of the hitman still unknown, a cloud lingers over Rocco, dulling his judgment and leaving this anti-hero exposed to other threats. For Rocco has stepped on one too many people’s toes over the years, namely the mafia that is still being rooted out in Aosta. To complicate matters, the kidnapped teenager that Rocco saved has not fully recovered. But all is not as it appears with that family. Her mother, father, and boyfriend are all running some sort of farce that Rocco can’t easily crack. And now he must grapple between these two parallel investigations and find answers once and for all…before one too many skeletons come after him. With the same clever insights, vitality, and humor readers have come to expect from Manzini, Spring Cleaning is another engaging mystery.

Decir que es muy bueno es quedarse corto. La trama impecable y con un transfondo de crítica social. En esta entrega vemos claramente la evolución que sufre Rocco. Cínico, impaciente, leal, pero también humano y sensible.......more

La primavera ha llegado al valle de Aosta, pero el humor de Schiavone no mejora. Seguimos disfrutando de las ocurrencias y el sarcasmo de Rocco y sus subordinados y por fin vamos a conocer qué le ocurrió a la mujer de Schiavone, esa historia que le atormenta y le impide llevar una vida normal. Avanza......more

Goodreads review by Georgiana on February 01, 2020

A quanto pare sono fortunata a poter leggere questi libri tutti di seguito, senza dove aspettare la nuova uscita - come è capitato a chi li ha letti appena usciti - visto che sono tutti concatenati: le vicende che sono cominciate in Non è stagione vengono riprese; ci sono nuovi omicidi, nuove indagi......more

Un altro buon passaggio della saga di Rocco Schiavone. Scritto come sempre bene e con dialoghi sempre credibili. La trama diventa un po' piu' elaborata e gioca contemporaneamente su piu' piani dando cosi' la possibilita' al personaggio principale di uscire dalle pose macchiettistiche.......more
