Bev,
Really from Perugia! How wonderful. It's rare that you meet people in the U.S. whose family comes from Umbria. I guess they liked it too much to leave home. My detective, Alessandro Cenni, is a commissario in the Perugia Questura, which is near the football stadium if you know Perugia. I hope you've been. It's a wonderful city, with a major university, and one of the great central streets in Italy. And there's a cafe there that has the most wonderful chocolate desserts ever, by name of Sandri. Name of book is: The Last Enemy, Grace Brophy, Soho Crime is the publisher.
And if you're interested Michael Dibdin, one of my favorite writers (just died unfortunately), set his first novel in Perugia, Rat King. But my favorite is Dead Lagoon set in Venice.
