Eva's Angel — Garry Disher

Eva Hicks has come to Italy for love and art. What she finds in the shifting light of Tuscany are gunshots along the terraced hillsides, the enigmatic Nye and a sense of her misplaced faith.

Meanwhile, in a crypt beneath the wintry stones of Venice, Matthew Rennie is cleaning the grime from a medieval fresco. Better here than above ground, where Nye holds sway, masked figures shadow him and people like Eva Hicks throw things into question.

Eva's Angel is a gripping, beautifully observed novel by Garry Disher, author of the award-winning, bestselling The Divine Wind.
