Why read it?
1 author picked Flowers over the Inferno as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Set in a vividly described location in the Swiss Alps, Flowers Over the Inferno features a most refreshing protagonist. Teresa Battaglia is in her sixties, stocky, diabetic, and extremely grumpy. What’s not to like? The plot is dark, the location stunning, and the crimes intriguing, but it’s Teresa’s character that made it a stand-out book for me.
From Roz's list on both dark and funny.
