New 2012 paperback edition. “No secret stays hidden forever.” A phone call from an old friend sets Dr. Giovanni Vecchio back on the path of a mystery he’d abandoned years before. He never expected a young librarian could hold the key to the search, nor could he have expected the danger she would attract. Now he and Beatrice De Novo will follow a twisted maze that leads from the archives of a university library, through the fires of Renaissance Florence, and toward a confrontation they never could have predicted. A Hidden Fire is a paranormal mystery/romance for adult readers. It is the first book in the Elemental Mysteries Series.

I so liked this! Interesting and realistic characters and behaviour - banter and humor, action and suspense and so on. Two little things that weren't great: The take on vampires was far away from original, actually more like sticking to most tropes as close as possible. Also the whole "book hunt...
