Cesare Aldo series - Bokserien

Set in Renaissance Florence, D. V. Bishop’s series follows Cesare Aldo, former soldier and now an officer of the city’s most feared criminal court, as he endeavours to solve a murder in a city full of plots and treason. The first novel of the series, City of Vengeance, starts in the winter of 1536. Aldo must stop a conspiracy while trying to keep his secrets his own. The story continues in The Darkest Sin and garnered praise from the likes of S. G. MacLean who said ‘D. V. Bishop transports you to an utterly convincing 16th century Florence, where the best and worst of human nature constantly circle each other in this tense mystery.'
