I have always believed that words have the power to create worlds, to bend time, and to slip into the minds of readers long after the book is closed.

That’s why I write: to leave traces, to draw realities that do not exist, and to make people believe — even if only for an instant — that anything is possible.

I love crossing genres without fear, getting my hands dirty with dystopian and psychological thrillers, surrendering to the tenderness of children’s stories, crafting romance novels that carry the scent of nostalgia, or inventing ironic cookbooks for those in a hurry who refuse to give up on flavor.

I believe that every story is a living creature, and it deserves to be told in the way it asks to be heard.

"Oceano Nero" (Black Ocean), my latest novel, is perhaps the darkest and most ambitious project I’ve ever written.

A dystopian thriller set in a Rome of 2032, where reality has become an opinion and the past has turned into a crime.

A story about lost identities, digital memories, and artificial consciousnesses that refuse to be silenced.

A novel born from the unease of modern times, from that lingering feeling of living inside a system that watches us and tells us only what it wants us to know — and that, perhaps, has already decided for us.

I draw inspiration from authors like Stephen King, Donato Carrisi, and Joel Dicker, because I love stories that force you to ask uncomfortable questions and leave you with the urge to go back and reread certain passages, just to see if you really understood everything.

If you love stories that make you laugh, cry, shiver, and reflect,

you’ll always find a secret passage to get lost in within my books.

Welcome to my world.
