I read the first of the crime novels - was it Death of an Englishman - but wasn't that taken with it, though I have a couple of others and would probably try again.

I think she died about a year ago, relatively young (mid 60s?)

Have you read any other crime novels set in Italy? It seems to be quite a popular setting for authors of crime fiction writing in English as their first languagage (Nabb, the late Michael Dibdin were English, Donna Leon is American).

He is not so much chubby as just incredibly long - coming up to 7 kilos but in clothes for a year old as nothing fits. Am short arse and dh typical shortarse frenchman, so he must be a throwback from somewhere.

But have you read Magdelen Nabb?!
