A Taste for Murder

Now a major TV series.

DCI Joe Mottram’s summer in Capri is the perfect opportunity to reconnect with his daughter—until it’s interrupted by a case that makes him question everything.

For murder detective Joe Mottram, a summer visit to his in-laws on the beautiful Italian island of Capri is meant to offer refuge. After the death of his wife Sofia in a hit-and-run in London, Joe has taken a sabbatical, hoping to heal and reconnect with his teenage daughter, Angelica. But then a British businesswoman is found dead at the foot of a notorious cliff. 

Now his plans to visit his in-laws’ beachside restaurant, Da Vinale’s, and learn how to prepare traditional Caprese dishes are replaced with the chilling details of the case. 

When local detective Lara Sarrancino shows up at Da Vinale’s asking questions, Joe realizes that the killer might not be as far away as he had thought. 

As the two detectives butt heads, the investigation flounders, until a second body turns up and they realize the killer is still at large on the tiny island. Unfortunately for Joe, the evidence trail appears to lead back close to home…
