Milo Marchetti gets an offer he cannot refuse. Soon, he's in big trouble. Confronted by mobsters, religious zealots and police who think he's a serial killer, Milo is drawn into a dangerous love affair with an exotic woman, and the depths of Trieste's criminal underworld. When shocking truths about the woman surface, Milo must choose between a deceitful lover and enormous power, or a return to his past life. Or is there something else in store for him? A furiously paced thriller with memorable characters, Blood Rain in Trieste's witty, morally pragmatic Milo Marchetti will appeal to fans of Philip Kerr's hard detective, Bernie Gunther, Robert Wilson's fixer, Bruce Medway, and Len Deighton's insubordinate Harry Palmer. Praise from readers: ★★★★★ - "Fans of rock-hard central characters paired with deceptively vulnerable heroines in faraway places will hail this book as possibly the breakout action novel of the year." ★★★★★ - "James Bond meets The Godfather... A great read." ★★★★★ - "The author's witty dialogue reminded me of those in film noir. How Milo navigates the underbelly of Trieste with its mobsters, prostitutes and high stakes will keep you enthralled to the very end."
