A review by duvallmel
The Dogs of Rome by Conor Fitzgerald
2.0
This novel depicts Italian law enforcement as deeply corrupted by Italian criminals. I don't know if I got that sense while I was trundling around amidst a complex bureaucracy of Vatican guards and officials behind the scenes while I was recovering my backpack. In any case it certainly seems to fit a stereotype.
There was some subtle humor (p. 213):
"You choose," said Sveva.
"She"ll have the panino con la coltellata," said Blume.
"Scusi?" said the barman.
Blume repeated himself. "Panino con la cotoletta..."
..."That's not what–I just thought you said–never mind."
