Giallo in Collina

The 2025 edition of Giallo in Collina was a special edition that transformed Portacomaro into a long literary marathon, spread from spring to autumn. The Civic Library hosted fourteen Italian crime and noir authors in a busy calendar of events, which concluded at the end of September.

Among the guests at the various stages were Maurizio Blini, a Turin-based writer and former State Police investigator who kicked off the festival, and Bruno Morchio, a Ligurian author of the famous investigator Bacci Pagano and winner of the 2023 Scerbanenco Prize. The meetings were held in various village venues, including the Palatenda in Piazza del Tamburello, the Casa della Musica, and the Romanesque church of San Pietro, confirming the festival's vocation to unite thriller literature with the characteristic locations of the Monferrato.
