Summary:
"Nonna Maria has a lot on her plate--and it's not just fresh pasta. Two crimes have rocked the sun-drenched island of Ischia, and once again, the island's denizens have called upon the espresso-brewing, sage-counsel-giving sleuth. A wealthy woman alleges a valuable necklace was stolen from her hotel room on island of Ischia. The necklace, she claims, has been in her family for decades. She blames one of the young women working on the cleaning crew as the most likely suspect--a young woman who is Nonna Maria's goddaughter. She takes the heat, but privately, she proclaims her innocence. Nearby, the body of a woman is found on a curved road near the borough of Barano. The woman is not known to anyone on the island. She has no purse, no identification. The one potential suspect is a young friend of Nonna Maria's who drove by the area that very night and thinks that he might have hit something--a pothole, or an animal, or maybe the woman in question. It turns out that the woman has a history on the island, having left Ischia decades ago. But why did she return, and more important, who killed her? Like the links of a beautiful, missing necklace, it's up to Nonna Maria to string together the clues and solve these two mysteries before death comes to Ischia again."-- Publisher.
