A collection of three cozy culinary mystery novels by Dick Rosano, now in one volume!

A Death In Tuscany: Filippo Trantino grows up in Tuscany and later moves to America with his family, leaving his heart among the vines of his family's wine estate. After he returns home for a funeral, his cousins convince him that his grandfather's death was not an accident. While solving the crime, Filippo travels the pastoral landscapes of Tuscany, indulging in the area's most delicious wine and food, and discovers the life he was always meant to live.

Hunting Truffles: Northern Italy is the cradle for a precious culinary gem: the white truffle of Piedmont. Worth more than gold, the truffle is sought after by chefs and foodies alike. But this year, the truffle hunters are in a panic, as they discover that their harvest has been stolen from under their feet. Inexplicably, the bodies of murdered hunters turn up, but there are no truffles to be found. A young man from Tuscany, in tow with his aunt and her restaurant crew, pursues the thieves through the hills of Piedmont, and discovers the delicious wine and food of the region.

"A seamless blend of engaging mystery, insider travelogue, a primer in Italian traditions, and a guide to Italian food and viticulture." - Ambassador Magazine

The Secret Of Altamura: It is 1943, and the Nazis control large parts of Italy. Colonel Anselm Bernhardt devotes his attention to stealing Italian art - and having his way with Italian women - but there is one great treasure that he covets even more. In present day, his grandson swears to make amends for Bernhardt's crimes, but is bitten by the same temptation and begins his search for the mysterious, historically vital treasure in southern Italy... a secret that can change the course of history.
