Because when a German trader is the next to die, the authorities decide it's innocent civilians who will pay the price - unless Eddie can find the killer in time.

Story
Torino, 1911. A tre giorni dall’inizio dell’Esposizione Universale che sta attirando sulla città le attenzioni del mondo intero, Carolina Invernizio, la scrittrice italiana più amata dal pubblico e disprezzata dai critici, lavora al suo nuovo romanzo e non smette di cercare ispirazione nelle più efferate notizie di cronaca nera. Una su tutte cattura la sua attenzione: Emilio Salgari – quel Salgari, il creatore di Sandokan e del Corsaro Nero – è stato trovato morto in un bosco, sulla cima di una collina. Si è ucciso a colpi di rasoio, dicono i giornali, e lo dice anche la polizia.

Thomas of London, the rebellious Archbishop of Canterbury, has made peace with Henry II, after six long years in exile. Henry and Thomas are both prepared to put past differences aside, but there is little trust left between the two former close friends and allies. A single ill-judged word or action could spark a conflict between the two men - and church and state. When news that Thomas has excommunicated royal supporters soon reaches the King, it is the last straw. With no hope of a lasting peace between the King and Archbishop, there can be only one, bloody conclusion.
