"The heroine of this period detective series has glamour and gumption... If you devoured all of Kerry Greenwood’s Phryne Fisher murder mysteries, you’ll probably have fun following Moss’ gutsy and likeable female detective through noir-like plots and an immersive historical setting." —Sydney Morning Herald
"Australian PI Billie Walker makes game-changing family discoveries in the entertaining third installment of this historical mystery series... Moss manages to keep her copious plot threads from getting tangled, and she supplements the action with sumptuous period fashion and simmering romance... Fans won't be disappointed." —Publishers Weekly
"Moss' intrepid heroine is a good choice for fans of Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs." —Booklist
“Another rip-roaring novel featuring one of my favorite detectives, Ms. Billie Walker. Moss’s latest is both a tale of international intrigue and an intimate family drama, racing from the cosmopolitan city of Sydney to the war-torn shores of Naples. The mystery at its core is a doozy, the tension sublime. An unforgettable read.” —Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Stolen Queen
“A richly layered, page-turning post-war mystery that explores, with depth and heart, how long-held secrets shape family and identity.” —Susan Meissner, USA Today bestselling author of A Map to Paradise
“A fearless young woman sets out on a quest in this tense but heartwarming tale of family, love and honor spanning the globe from Naples to Sydney.” —Rhys Bowen, New York Times bestselling author of the Royal Spyness series
“Billie Walker is enchanting, bringing style, verve and an unerring sense of justice to a post-war world full of grittiness, luxury, and danger. As her investigation leads her from present-day Sydney into a pre-war Italian past, the professional becomes achingly personal. At times tough, at other times deeply tender, armed with her trademark tilt hat and Fighting Red lipstick, she captured my heart.” —Frances Liardet, New York Times bestselling author of We Must Be Brave and Think of Me
“Billie Walker is a heroine for the ages, and in The Italian Secret she is as sharp, alluring, and feisty as ever. Moss seamlessly weaves setting and action into a mystery that is at once intimate and sweeping as Billie travels from the streets of Sydney to the sparkling Italian coast in search of truth and justice. A pleasure from start to finish.” —Elizabeth DeLozier, author of Eleanore of Avignon
