Her characters are well-rounded and real, and you begin to care about what happens to them and what more they bring to the story. Damiani beautifully captures the rhythm and life of a small Italian town, and fills the story with details about food, culture, wine, and the landscape. It makes me homesick for my own small town in Le Marche! What I enjoy most about Damiani's book is that the people we meet in the story meet with many challenges and decisions to be made that are totally realistic and familiar. "The Stillness of the Swallows" is a great read, and once you start it, you won't be able to put it down."</p><p>"Oh, I love the Santa Lucia series. And this third book, Stillness of Swallows, is no disappointment. Back in the beautiful village I slipped right into the narrative as though I'd never left. All my old friends, acquaintances, and yes, villains were waiting for me. The sense of foreboding grows slowly, slowly. By the excruciating climactic scenes I was on the edge of my seat. You won't want to miss reading this next installment. A real page turner."</p><p>"Michelle has done it again, transporting us to the village of Santa Lucia where everyone knows and cares for everyone. We had a little less Chiara this time, and a lot more excitement. I did not anticipate the plot twists. Thanks for some interesting surprises, Michelle. It is a delightful book filled with characters I enjoy spending time with."</p><br>
