Arnaud Delalande, The Dante Trap (2011)

“Murder follows murder, each more gruesome than the last, and as Viravolta begins to draw the connections between these deaths, and the torments reserved for sinners in each of Dante’s circles of hell, he finds himself embroiled in a terrible game of cat and mouse. As the streets of Venice fill with masked Carnival-goers, and as Anna and Viravolta are once again thrown together, he is drawn further into the inferno, to the heart of a secret sect and a plot to bring about the downfall of the city.”    —Orion Books (last accessed April 28, 2018)

The Dante Trap was originally published in French under the title Le Piege de Dante and has since been translated into over 20 languages.
