Italian author of historical thrillers; known for Il Quadro Segreto di Caravaggio. Review mentions prior success with The Secret Book of Dante.

Writes novels that blend art history, historical research and thriller/adventure elements. Works include Il Quadro Segreto di Caravaggio (reviewed on DeBaser).

The single review praises Francesco Fioretti's Il Quadro Segreto di Caravaggio as a vivid historical thriller that recasts Caravaggio as a detective and social avenger. The novel mixes art history, historical detail and adventure, and is described as tasty, colorful and intellectually rich.

For:Readers of historical fiction and thrillers, art-history enthusiasts, and those who enjoy biographical reimaginings of artists.

 Can an artist, both reactionary and revolutionary, undeservedly thrust into the filth of the seventeenth-century Counter-Reformation, transform into a private detective, kill and risk a death sentence to avenge the victims of fake-Christian horror?
