Turín no es Buenos Aires

Více o knize

Hector Perazzo, a former Argentine Federal Police inspector turned private detective in Turin, typically handles routine cases involving infidelity and petty troubles. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when Doña Pilar, a Peruvian woman, seeks his help to find her missing daughter, Linda, a twenty-year-old who has mysteriously disappeared. As Hector delves into the diverse and often shadowy corners of Turin, he navigates the blurred lines between legality and crime. The search for Linda uncovers a disturbing reality that leads him to the mountains of Saluzzo, following the legacy of a renowned Renaissance painter. Renowned Italian crime novelist Giorgio Ballario expertly guides readers through this intricate and unsettling investigation. Perazzo emerges as a compelling character—ironic, fatalistic, and steeped in the complexities of his expatriate identity. His journey is marked by the languid rhythm of tango, interspersed with moments of intense action and suspense reminiscent of classic American noir. While Turin may differ from Buenos Aires, it proves to be the perfect backdrop for a gripping contemporary noir narrative.
