The Family Tomb is a 1969 suspense novel by the British mystery and thriller writer Michael Gilbert.

It is Gilbert's 14th novel and takes place entirely in Florence, Italy, a few years after the great flood of the Arno river in 1966, which caused serious damage in the city. Gilbert had a great fondness for Italy, which was the setting for a number of his books. One of these is his other well-known novel Death in Captivity, a mystery based on Gilbert's time in an Italian prisoner-of-war camp during World War II.

One of these is his other well-known novel Death in Captivity, a mystery based on Gilbert's time in an Italian prisoner-of-war camp during World War II. Apart from Death in Captivity and The Family Tomb, however, most of Gilbert's other books have only a portion of their events taking place in Italy. The Family Tomb occurs entirely within a few miles of the Ponte Vecchio and central Florence. (en) |
