Macciocchi

A photograph. A missing mother.
A secret worth more than any life.
Elena Rossini has everything: power, money, an impeccable career at the heart of European finance. But when she receives an old photograph taken on the pier of Naples, the past she buried returns to claim its price.
Her mother was not just a missing woman.
She was a pawn - or perhaps a player - in a web of trafficking, blackmail, and capital stretching across Monaco, Milan, and the Mediterranean.
A system built to protect someone... and to destroy anyone who knows too much.
As Elena descends into the Spanish Quarters, the ports, and the corrupted archives, she discovers that the truth was never destroyed: it was shattered and hidden in fragments.
And someone, in the shadows, is ready to use them as a weapon.
Shadows of the Mediterranean is an elegant and ruthless noir, where money is a secret language, love is a crime, and freedom is a debt that never stops growing.
