'The rock cast a sharp, dark shadow over a shape huddled on the ground. Please don’t let it be the boy, Colomba thought. Her silent prayer didn’t go unanswered. The corpse belonged to the mother.'

When a woman is beheaded in a park outside Rome and her six-year-old son goes missing, the police unit assigned to the case sees an easy solution: they arrest the woman’s husband and await his confession. But the Chief of Rome’s Major Crimes unit doubts things are so simple. Secretly, he lures to the case two of Italy’s top analytical minds: Deputy Captain Colomba Caselli, a fierce, warrior-like detective still reeling from having survived a bloody catastrophe, and Dante Torre, a man who spent his childhood trapped inside a concrete silo. Fed through the gloved hand of a masked kidnapper who called himself 'The Father', Dante emerged from his ordeal with crippling claustrophobia but, also, with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and hyper-observant capacities.

All evidence suggests that 'The Father' is back and active after being dormant for decades. But when Columba and Dante begin following the ever-more-bizarre trail of clues, they grasp that what’s really going on is darker than they ever imagined.

Kill the Angel, the sequel to Kill the Father, publishes in May 2018.

This unabridged audio version is read by Cassandra Campbell.

Eleştirmen yorumları

‘Kill The Father is absorbing, disturbing, clever, bizarre, original and brutal. The outline of the plot is simple, its execution thrilling’
'This [debut] introduces us to two of the most intriguing detectives to have emerged in recent years… Brutal and frighteningly realistic, it never loses its grip'
'[a] fascinatingly complex thriller'
'An intelligent thriller… very entertaining' (Jake Kerridge)
‘Sandrone Dazieri’s intricate character-based thriller is undoubtedly a gripping read…a deliciously dark journey which provides a genuinely satisfying conclusion’
'Absolutely electrifying. Kill the Father is one of those rare treasures: a page-turning thriller--in every sense of the phrase--that is also brilliantly nuanced and rich with insight into the complex and compelling minds of those, good and bad, who inhabit its pages. This novel is the new definition of a one-sitting read' (Jeffery Deaver, author of The Burial Hour)
‘Police politics and military operations add to the complexity and interest of this unrelenting, adrenaline-fueled novel, with a final twist serving as a setup for a sequel. Don’t be surprised if Kill the Father becomes the next Big Thing in international crime fiction’
'If you want to study how a novel is written, look no further than Italian newcomer Sandrone Dazieri ... Kill the Father is impeccable, from the build up of characters and place to the crisp narrative…Do not pass this one up; it’s a terrific crime drama'
‘Ingenious…features a pair of protagonists with personal demons as unnerving as the vicious monster they’re pursuing’ (John Verdon, author of Wolf Lake)
'Simply a masterpiece: for the poignancy of the story, the creation of characters you can never forget, and the way the author grabs the reader by the throat and doesn’t let go'
‘A mind-bending, stunningly original page-turner … In Dante and Colomba, Sandrone Dazieri has created two of the most memorable characters in modern crime fiction’ (Jonathan Kellerman, author of Night Moves)
'An intense, gripping, and entirely unforgettable story - part psychological puzzle, part police procedural, and part conspiracy theory. Mr. Dazieri has written a thriller of the highest order. Highly recommended' (Christopher Reich, author of The Take)

really enjoyed this book and cant wait for the next one. Narration not great, all italian characters but narrator had an american accent. i found this slightly irritating. love how the two main characters had their own internal personal battles but did not give up. very powerful messsages about self determination and fighting for the greater good

great story

Not bad if a bit wordy and inconsistent. Nice narration but a few odd pronunciations.

I does remind me just how good Steig Larsson was at this kind of stuff...

Pretty good but under-edited.

I enjoyed this book, but it is unnecessarily long. The story is good and engaging and they tied up most things at the end, which is good. I did struggle with all the Italian character names as they were all new to me and I found it difficult to remember who was who, which made it hard to follow the story sometimes. The main characters were well defined and relatable and I enjoyed the story. All in all, I enjoyed the book, but I won't be looking for a sequel.

Very looooooonnnnnnggggg!

I thought this book was never going to end. I found the narrator’s characterisation of Columba to be insipid and I just couldn’t relate to her at all. The story had so much promise but it was so long and drawn out. I found myself looking for excuses not to listen when I’m usually engrossed from start to finish. My nonexistent knowledge of the Italian police force and legal system probably didn’t help. I won’t be listening to more from this author.

Interminable.
