Sardinia, 1955.
After performing a concert in a sleepy Sardinian port town, a celebrated string quintet intends to spend a few days off before continuing its European tour.
While there, they are befriended by a group of wealthy socialites and a mysterious count.
But beneath the glamorous surface lies a world of jealousy, resentment, and carefully guarded secrets.
So when one of the quintet is found murdered on a lonely street, the Carabinieri believe the killing was a botched robbery.
But one of the musicians, Larry Darke, is not so convinced.
Combining the intricate plotting of the Golden Age with romance, gentle humour, rich character drama, and a haunting sense of post-war loss, Death and the Tears is an engrossing mystery set beneath the Mediterranean sun. Elegant, evocative, and utterly compelling.
