Sinopse

Cherish the good memories. Weaponize the bad ones.
 
Together with her faithful canine companion, Foxy Valdez lives a Spartan life in her single-wide trailer. A legendary mercenary, she's under contract with Salvage Corps PMC, known as Ángel de la Muerte. Haunted by memories from her tragic past, she’s desperate to break free of the gun-for-hire life that she’s sold her soul to.
 
That opportunity presents itself when journalist and social media influencer, Brendan Thor, uncovers a conspiracy involving a cabal of powerful men hellbent on controlling people through memory manipulation. An opposing force wants Thor alive and will pay any price to protect him.
 
The head of Salvage presents Foxy with an offer she finds hard to refuse. On her own in a dark world chock-full of ruthless mercenaries, double-dealers and uneasy alliances, nothing is what it seems - except for one thing. To win her freedom, Foxy Valdez will have to outwit and outgun everyone in her path.

    Set in the heart of Tuscan wine country, Camilla Trinchieri’s new mystery introduces Nico Doyle, a former NYPD homicide detective who’s just looking for space to grieve when he finds himself pulled into a local murder investigation. 
     
    Mourning the loss of his wife, Rita, former NYPD homicide detective Nico Doyle moves to her hometown of Gravigna in the wine-soaked region of Chianti. Half-Italian and half-Irish, Nico finds himself able to get by in the region with the help of Rita’s relatives, but he still feels alone and out of place. He isn’t sure if it’s peace he’s seeking, but it isn’t what he finds. Early one morning, he hears a gunshot and a dog's cries near his cabin and walks out to discover a dead body in the woods, flashily dressed in gold tennis shoes. When the police arrive, Nico hastily adopts the fluffy white dog as his own and wants nothing more to do with the murder. 
     
    But Salvatore Perillo, the local maresciallo, discovers Nico's professional background and enlists him to help with the case. It turns out more than one person in this idyllic corner of Italy knew the victim, and with a very small pool of suspects, including his own in-laws, Nico must dig up Gravigna’s every last painful secret to get to the truth. 
     
    “Engaging characters, a wonderful Tuscan setting, and a tightly plotted mystery. Like a good wine, Nico's story starts out delicious and is sure to reveal even more complexity and nuance over time.”—SJ Rozan, bestselling author of Paper Son
