From Publisher:

Not since Donna Tartt's The Secret History has a novel delved so deeply into the world of fatal secrets. Pulsating with menace and sensuality, Sasso brings together a clash of cultures in the breathless, intense heat of the Italian summer during which it takes place.Hidden away in the labyrinthine caves that surround Mancanzano, deep in the Italian south, 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 the stunning frescoes found on the cave walls. Then another couple is found dead, and another, and as weeks, then months, pass, and the stifling heat of summer descends, the irresistible atmosphere holds them all in thrall....and one man uncovers secrets that may lead him to his own doom.Sasso is an astonishing, compelling first novel and an unforgettably intense thriller.
