Leaving No Traces (A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome) by P.J. Mann – Review by Rebeca Elliott Figueiras

Leaving No Traces by P. J. Mann
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the fifth book in the A Commissario Scala Mystery in Rome series. Although it is not essential to read the rest of the series to understand what is happening, I would recommend doing so to understand characters and background better.

I enjoy the author’s descriptive writing and their ability to paint a clear picture of what’s happening and the characters within the scenes.

Scala is a determined character, not taking the easy option by accepting the convenient answers. He is determined to find the truth, even when the case twists and turns as much as this one – nothing is what he expects.

I enjoyed the plot and where the story led in this instalment. There were moments which surprised me, moments which tugged on my emotions but there was never a dull moment.

I’m enjoying reading this series, and would recommend those who enjoy a good mystery book to give this a try.
