Abstract
With the pseudonym of Roberta Mazzoni, Roberta de Falco, author and screenwriter, she published the investigations of Ettore Benussi, the surly commissioner of the "Mobile of Trieste": "No one is innocent", "Benussi and the silent Ada", "Good times for Bad people", "Time does not erase" (Sperling & Kupfer, respectively: 2013, only in ebook, 2014, 2016). The title of the 2014 novel "Good times for bad People" comes from a Bosnian saying. As Maurizio de Giovanni says in the Preface, de Falco's tale tells the encounter of souls and of different traditions, the story of a necessary connivance on which the ghosts of the war and the dead without peace always hover (p. VIII), from the dry and essential (IX) writing, an alarming voice that promises to become increasingly important in the polyphonic choir of the black, contemporary Italian novel
