Shortlisted for the 2024 McIlvanney Prize
A religious serial killer stalks the streets in this immersive historical thriller set against the backdrop of the Medici dynasty in 1530s Renaissance Florence.
Cesare Aldo was once an officer for the city's most feared criminal court. Following a period of exile, he is back—but demoted to night patrol, when only the drunk and the dangerous roam the streets.
Chasing a suspect in the rain, Aldo discovers a horrifying scene beneath Michelangelo's statue of David. Lifeless eyes gaze from the face of a man whose body has been posed as if crucified. It's clear the killer had religious motives.
When more bodies appear, Aldo believes an unholy murderer is stalking the citizens of Florence. Watching. Hunting. Waiting for the perfect moment to strike again...
A Divine Fury is the fourth gripping novel in the Cesare Aldo series, preceded by City of Vengeance, winner of the 2022 NZ Booklovers Award for Best Adult Fiction, The Darkest Sin, winner of the 2023 CWA Historical Dagger Award, and Ritual of Fire, longlisted for the 2023 McIlvanney Prize.
