Date: April 2002 "Hidden away in the labrynthine caves that surround Mancanzano, deep in the south of Italy, two teenagers are found dead, their naked bodies perfect except for the mysterious lacerations across their faces. As police puzzle over the deaths, four experts arrive to investigate a different mystery in the caves: the stunning frescoes discovered on the walls. Who painted the frescoes and when? Who tried to hide them?" As the art experts and scientists work and begin to become part of the community, asking questions wherever they have reason to believe answers might be found, another couple is found dead, and another, and as weeks, then months, pass, the irresistible atmosphere holds them all in thrall ... and one man uncovers truths that may lead him to his own doom. |
