High in the Italian Dolomites, the Galileo Ferraris Observatory stands alone above the snow line. Paolo Neri never wanted to come. He reads data for a living, and the last time he found a pattern nobody else could see, a celebrated professor lost everything.
He is summoned because the observatory's director has been receiving threats. We know what you did. Soon everyone will know.
By the time Paolo reaches the summit, an Arctic front has sealed the mountain roads. Nobody is coming up. Nobody is going down. And before the first night is over, the director lies dead beneath the great dome.
Everyone still inside the observatory had a reason to want him gone.
A senior researcher with an old score to settle. A young astronomer who knows more than she is saying. A technician with access to every door in the building. A colleague whose alibi is a little too tidy. Each of them has a reason to lie, and most of them are taking it.
No police. No phone line. No way down the mountain. Paolo has only the thing he has always had: the ability to see the shape hidden inside a mess of facts. But the storm will not last forever, and whoever killed once has no reason to stop.
Death at the Observatory is a closed circle murder mystery in the classic tradition, for readers who like their suspects few, their clues fair and their endings earned. Everything you need is on the page. See whether you get there before Paolo does.
Previously published in Italian as La Cupola del Silenzio.
