On October 6, 2026, the seventh book in the Mortina series, La festa trapassata, was released in Italy, with translations into several languages soon to follow across Europe and around the world.

"On New Year’s Eve in 1915, the atmosphere at Villa Decadente is positively dazzling. Amid dancing, toasts, and eccentric relatives, little Mortina (who is still very much alive!) has no idea that this will be a New Year’s Eve dinner unlike any other. But an alarmingly pale awakening and a ghostly grandfather reveal that... they’ve all turned into zombies! What unfortunate mishap has landed Mortina’s family in this bizarre... condition?"
