Mediterraneo - Paperback

by Julian Gallo (Author)

What will they do once the fire goes out? Two lifelong friends set off on their annual summer travel, a ritual since their college days. This year it's the Mediterranean, the first stop being a small village in the mountains of southern Italy, a town in which both their families hail from. They soon discover their ancestral town has one foot in the twenty first century, one foot still firmly rooted in the past, where some of the locals are still clinging to ancient folkways, vendettas, and superstitious beliefs. Something dark had taken place in the village three decades earlier and the mere arrival of the two friends sets off a chain of events that will shake this sleepy village to its very core.
