The Lizard's Bite
Author(s): David Hewson
Nic Costa and Gianni Peroni's humiliating exile in Venice is nearly at an end. So when they are ordered to investigate an apparently open-and-shut case, a fire in a glass foundry that claimed two lives, all they want is to wrap it up quickly. However, as they dig deeply into the insular glass-making region of Murano, things don't quite add up.
