About this listen

When, one dark night in November, Prince Ludovico Ruspanti fell 150 feet to his death in the chapel at St. Peter's, Rome, there were a number of questions to be answered. Inspector Aurelio Zen finds that getting the answers isn't easy, as witness after witness is mysteriously silenced - by violent death. To crack the secret of the Vatican, Zen must penetrate the most secret place of all: the Cabal.

The combination of Michael Dibden's writing and Michael Kitchen's delivery is wonderful. In this tale the characters develop, the tone of the writing matures and the quality of whimsical observation reaches new heights. This is what I wanted and I loved it.
