Paradise City
Paradise City

Naples detective confronts mob in gritty NYC.

If you're intrigued by a blend of international crime and personal stakes, "Paradise City" is your kind of read. Following Giancarlo Lo Manto as he delves into the underbelly of New York to find his niece, the story merges the intensity of a hard-boiled detective tale with the heart of a family drama. Lorenzo Carcaterra's experience in crafting compelling crime narratives shines through, providing you with a page-turner that's as much about family bonds as it is about justice.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Giancarlo Lo Manto is the toughest cop on the toughest beat in Europe - a detective in the Naples homicide squad, dedicated to bringing down the mob. But what hurts the gangsters in the old country hurts them in the new world too. In the highest towers of the most expensive streets in New York City, Lo Manto is becoming a problem. When Lo Manto learns his teenage niece, Paula, has gone missing in Manhattan, the two worlds, the two cities, are set to collide. The poor of Naples call New York Paradise City. For Gian Lo Manto, coming to the City is a journey into hell.
