desertcart.com: The Tuscan Child (Audible Audio Edition): Rhys Bowen, Jonathan Keeble, Katy Sobey, Audible Studios: Books

Review: Good Story - Rhys Bowen does a nice job of switching between two stories without confusing the reader. Again her characters are well developed and she makes the countryside into a character in her stories, which makes you want to travel there. I found myself a bit impatient with the main character when I figured things out faster than s she did but that passed. I don’t know why but I was disappointed when things were tied up so nearly at the end. In life that only happens in some fairy tales and Disney movies. But still, Ms Bowen does a masterful job of telling a story and keeps you reading to the end.
Review: Two Mysteries Set Against the Tuscan Countryside in Two Time Periods - I was one of the lucky winners of a Goodreads FirstReads Kindle version of this book. Unlike the cozy mystery series that I've read by this author, this one is set in two time periods: World War II and 1973. Most of the story takes place in 1973, but the past is ever present as the plot unfolds. The book opens in December 1944 with an English pilot, Sir Hugo Langley, being shot down in the Tuscan countryside and finds himself in the village of San Salvatore. Danger is ever-present, as German troops are frequent visitors to the area and Hugo's recovery could jeopardize the safety of anyone willing to help him. The narrator in 1973 is Hugo's estranged daughter Joanna, who has just been informed of her father's passing. As she is clearing out his belongings, she discovers several major bombshells about her father's past, including the fact that he had spent time in Italy during the war. A returned letter to her father from Italy prompts Joanna to take off for Tuscany to unravel that part of his mysterious past. However, she soon discovers that some people in San Salvatore would prefer to leave the past buried. This book is a departure from the humorous cozy mysteries I've previously read by this author. While I've enjoyed those cozy reads, I enjoyed this one even more due to the Italian backdrop and the mysteries that occurred in both the past and the present. Even though the tone in this one was more serious, I found myself reading "just one more chapter" to find out what would happen next. I'm so glad that I had a chance to read this one and would recommend it if you enjoy historical mysteries with a dash of romance, art, and Tuscan beauty. Thanks to the Goodreads FirstReads program for another terrific read!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Enjoyable Read
*by T***Y on January 30, 2026*

Typically I don’t like books that follow a non-linear narrative. I tend to find them confusing but this author handled the non-linear narrative very well I thought. The plot and character portrayal were well matched in that neither were very complex but still interesting. The book is an enjoyable read. This is the second mystery I’ve read that takes place in Italy. As I read them, I started to think I was reading my Italian Grandmother’s cookbook. Neither was the book to read when you’re hungry.
