by Frank Curtiss (Author)

American Antonio Cortese considers Tuscany his second home. His mother was born and raised there, and she took him and his siblings home to Tuscany every summer to spend time with family. It was there-tied to the apron strings of his nonna, mother, and aunts-that he learned to love and master the art of Italian cooking.

Following in the footsteps of his father and uncle, Antonio became a detective. He spent twenty years on the force in Southern California. But after an injury ended his career, he moved his family north to Washington State. There he pursued his love of Italian food and opened Antonio's Pizzeria and Italian Café in the wine country of Woodinville.

After a long absence, he has returned to Tuscany. He came looking for peace, and to move beyond a major tragedy in his life. But while bicycling the back roads of Chianti with his young cousin, Giulia, intentional harm befalls them, leaving Giulia fighting for her life. Now, an injured Antonio, along with Giulia's father, Detective Nicolo Zaccardi, seek to find those responsible and bring them to justice. But they each have a different idea what that looks like.
