FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ENGLISHwe present Grazia Verasani’s Quo Vadis, Baby? translated from the Italian, with an introduction, by Taylor Corse and Juliann Vitullo. Already a cult classic in Italy, with five sequels so far, a film by Gabriele Salvatores, and a TV mini-series on Sky, this novel introduces English readers to Private Detective Giorgia Cantini. Brutally honest, she smokes and drinks too much, exercises too little, eats on the run, and — the cardinal sin for Italian women — is a messy housekeeper. Even worse, she turns her detection skills onto the secret of her own sister’s mysterious death. Was it a suicide, or something more sinister and closer to home? “This delicious novel is a genre all its own — Italian neorealism meets feminist noir. I can’t wait for more Verasani in English.” — Sara Paretsky— Google Books
