An unscrupulous womaniser, as devoid of morals as he once was full of idealistic fervour, returns to Italy where he is wanted for a series of political crimes. To avoid prison he sells out his old friends, turns his back on former ideals and cuts deals with crooked cops. To achieve the guise of respectability he is willing to go even further, perhaps even as far as murder. It's lean, mean and violent and Carlotto offersan unflinching and unflattering view of modernItaly. - The Independent

Massimo Carlotto was born in Padua, Italy. In addition to the many titles in his extremely popular “Alligator” series, he is also the author of The Fugitive, Death’s Dark Abyss, Poisonville, Bandit Love, and At the End of a Dull Day. One of Italy’s most popular authors and a major exponent of the Mediterranean Noir novel, Carlotto has been compared with many of the most important American hardboiled crime writers.
