When style expert Samantha Kidd plans a holiday in Italy, she expects scenic piazzas, endless pasta, and maybe a little romance—not a murder mystery older than her passport.

The case? The murder of Alfredo, the town’s most hated man. The suspect? Pasquale, a mild-mannered shoemaker who has spent decades in prison for the crime. The twist? Samantha’s host should have been Pasquale’s alibi—if she hadn’t left town that night to start invasive cancer treatments in Switzerland.

Armed with her quick wit, a love for gelato, and the undercover help of her shoe designer husband, Samantha will need all the luck she can muster to solve the crime and make it through her getaway alive.
