FINALISTA DEL PREMIO EDGAR ALLAN POE 2021
Y EN LOS PRIMEROS PUESTOS DE MÁS VENDIDOS EN ITALIA

«La reina del thriller italiano.»--Sandrone Dazieri

«Teresa Battaglia es uno de los personajes más conseguidos y certeros de la escena negra contemporánea.»--Javier Morales, Público

La comisaria Teresa Battaglia duda si seguir ocultando a su equipo la enfermedad que se ceba con su memoria, cuando recibe una llamada desde una galería de arte: ha sido hallado un retrato de enorme valor atribuido a un pintor de culto, Alessio Andrian, cuya undécima y última obra se creía perdida. El cuadro, sin embargo, posee un detalle que ensombrece el descubrimiento: la pintura roja que dibuja el rostro de una joven es en realidad sangre humana y, según el análisis cromático, el pincel del artista se empapó en un corazón que aún latía. Teresa y su equipo tienen que averiguar qué sucedió en 1945, año en que se pintó el cuadro, cuando el autor se encontraba escondido en los bosques cercanos a la frontera entre Italia y Yugoslavia huyendo de los nazis. Battaglia, con una salud cada día más frágil, debe confiar en la ayuda de su colaborador Massimo Marini, pero pronto se dará cuenta de que ella no es la única que oculta un secreto inconfesable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

ONE OF THE FINALISTS OF THE EDGAR ALLAN POE AWARD, 2021.

RANKING HIGH AMONG ITALY'S BEST SELLERS LIST.

"The queen of Italian thriller." --Sandrone Dazieri

"Teresa Battaglia is one of the most unerringand well-crafted characters in contemporary noir."--Javier Morales, Público

Sheriff Teresa Battaglia is wondering whether to tell her squad about this illness eating away her memory, when she receives a phone call from an art gallery. They found a portrait of immense value, attributed to a cult painter, Alessio Andrian, whose eleventh and last work was thought to be lost. The painting, however, has a detail darkening the find: the red paint in a young woman's face is actually human blood, and according to the chromatic analysis, the artist wet his brush in a still beating heart. Teresa and her team must find out what happened back in 1945, when the portrait was painted, when the artist hid from the Nazis in the woods between the Italian and Yugoslavian border. Battaglia, feeling her health weakening every day, must rely on her collaborator Massimo Marini, but will soon find out she is not the only one hiding an unspeakable secret.

Excellent Guide for the Soul and the Spiritual Journey
This book was one that I somehow decided upon--seemed like divine providence. For the book ended up being quite pivotal for this point in my spiritual journey. I found it very readable, loved Climacus' to-the-point style but with yet eloquent presentation. A friend who is 87 and reads books with me, across the miles, loved this book, also. It is a kind of a guidebook for the soul, step by step. The translation is excellent; the introduction quite helpful, too. I bought the book used online, and rather than resell it, this book is definitely staying in my possession so that I can refer back to it. Excellent!

Freshness that Lasts
Flavor Name: Peppermint, Size: 3 Pack
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first tried Zelmin Breath Mints, but they’ve quickly become my favorite way to keep my breath fresh and my confidence high. The flavor is crisp and invigorating without being overpowering, and unlike many mints that fade after just a few minutes, these actually last. The packaging is compact and convenient, making it easy to slip into a pocket or bag, and the taste strikes the perfect balance, refreshing without being overly sweet. What impressed me most is the performance: the long-lasting freshness truly sets these apart, and there’s no chalky texture or artificial aftertaste, just clean, cool breath. I’ve tried countless mints over the years, but Zelmin stands out for its quality and effectiveness. If you’re looking for something reliable that delivers on freshness, this is it. Highly recommend! Not too sweet too!

Minty Mouth and Fresh Feel on the Go!
Flavor Name: Peppermint, Size: 3 Pack
I really like the concept of this product and how strong the mint is. It gives a quick burst of freshness that lasts longer than regular mints. The size is convenient for on the go and perfect for travel. I do wish the flavor was a bit smoother, but overall it does exactly what it promises and has been helpful for dry mouth and keeping breath fresh.

The closest thing to the now-defunct BreathAssure that I can find & they works great!!
Flavor Name: Peppermint, Size: 3 Pack
Most parsley seed oil products these days add some kind of mint oil because of the belief that more is better and you wind up burping spearmint or peppermint. The ones with mint seem to be less effective with less actual parsley seed oil. BreathAssure was a popular parsley seed oil product in the mid 1990s. The company was family owned and they grew way too fast and then bottomed out. Boom, no more BreathAssure. THIS product, Botanic Choice Parsley Seed Oil - Breath Gels, are FINALLY the same basic and compact gel that meets my needs. There is sunflower oil as the "carrier oil" and then the correct dose of Parsley seed oil. You cannot imagine the Snoopy happy dance I did when I unpacked them and swallowed a couple! One thing to note: I have found after much use, that I need to take about 3 gels before and after eating something garlicky or heavy with onions. BreathAssure worked better but these are the best substitute I have found so far and believe me, I have tried dozens of other Parsley seed oil gels. I order these once a month with Subscribe and Save. 1. No bad taste burp ups 2. Works like a charm. Take with a meal or between meals if you get hunger breath or Halitosis. 3. Compact design - you can fit contents of TWO bottles into one if you want to carry extras. 4. replicates a product I used to consume daily 5. easy to swallow with a garlicky meal and have fresh breath afterward 6. Price is affordable and comparable to the brand I used to use. I have been ordering them frequently since this review was posted. May 3rd, 2023: It's been a while since I first began using these. I am still buying them and using them regularly. i have found that with good dental hygiene alone, I still had food-related bad breath. These seem to help better than any other formulation on the market today. As with many things, the price has gone up a little, but cheaper brands just don't work for me. This is the only brand that seems to have the same high quality parsley seed oil with no added ingredients to trick you. I don't need or want added mint oils or extracts in my parsley seed oil gels. I am glad that Botanic Choice keeps things simple. This is an essential part of my daily routine for fresher breath, and it helps me a lot. I would suggest trying one order to see if it helps YOU. Remember, I have found that an appropriate serving is 3 gels before a meal AND after a meal or even between meals, if i have eaten something fairly aromatic. Parsley oil has some good health benefits as well as it's natural deodorizing quality. Some people find it helps with stomach acid & reflux. I don't really have those problems, so i just take it the way i used to take BreathAssure. Parsley seed oil has been traditionally used as an upset stomach remedy and on the skin to prevent acne. It is also purported to have anti-inflammatory properties. I just need it for fresh breath, but if it does have other benefits, well great! I'm happy to have found this product and NOBODY has paid me or bribed me to write this review!
