Italy To Die For (Book 1). Too much togetherness spells disaster for these thirty-something sisters vacationing in Italy. When glamorous Margo opts for a steamy romance in Florence, plain-Jane Ellen travels alone to their next destination, a charming hillside villa at La Spezia. The owner Lorenzo, a mysterious widower, insists on showing Ellen around Cinque Terre, five picturesque villages overlooking the Ligurian Sea.
Ellen is determined to experience the local culture but instead encounters intrigue in Monterosso el Mare where gypsies are turning up dead faster than Lorenzo can show her the sights. Then Margo arrives, and soon discovers her own life is in danger. Regrets To Die For (Book 2). Ellen and Margo discover there's more to Italy than the typical tourist destinations when they check out their family roots in the foothills of the Italian Alps, much to the dismay of their sassy grandmother Clarita.
Nonnie Clarita, who now lives in St. Louis, was only eighteen when she left her widowed mother in Pont Canavese and immigrated to America after the Second World War. Why she has no regrets about leaving or never returning is a mystery Ellen and Margo are determined to resolve, with or without the obstinate Clarita's cooperation. Could it be the horrific murder of the father Clarita adored? Or the questionable suicide of Clarita's young friend and later the drowning of the boy's grieving father? Or, her ill-fated teenage romance with a persistent Resistance fighter that triggered this series of tragic events?Not Worthy Dying For (Book 3).
What would it take for Ellen and Margo to cut short their Italian holiday and return St. Louis? Their mother Toni's connection to the murder of Val Corrigan, that's what. It seems the widow Toni shared Val's affections with her clueless best friend among other women, one who later winds up dead. While attempting to prove their mother's innocence, the sisters' amateur sleuthing leads them to the decade-old renovation of a building located in the former St.
Louis Garment District. El and Margo soon discover that greed and corruption within the construction industry resulted in deadly consequences for more than one victim. It's up to the sisters to convince hard-nosed Major Case Squad Detectives Sam Reardan and Guy Winchester who resent the outside interference. If that's not enough, the sisters' Nonnie Clarita's long ago WWII teenage lover has traveled from Italy to St.
Louis, determined to renew their romance and to establish a relationship with Clarita's family.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Loretta Giacoletto

Loretta Giacoletto divides her time between the St. Louis Metropolitan area and Missouri's Lake of the Ozarks where she concentrates on writing fiction, essays, and her blog Loretta on Life while her husband cruises the waters for bass and crappie. Their five children have left the once chaotic nest but occasionally return for her to-die-for ravioli and roasted peppers topped with garlic-laden bagna càuda.
An avid traveler, she has visited numerous countries in Europe and Asia but Italy remains her favorite, especially the area from where her family originates: the Piedmont region near the Italian alps. Loretta's novels are filled with bawdy characters caught up in problems they must suffer the consequences for having created. In LETHAL PLAY a grieving widow is suspected of killing her son's coach, a man with more enemies than friends.
FAMILY DECEPTIONS follows two generations of earthy characters who learn to thrive and/or survive through a series of misdeeds, the worst against those they love the most. FREE DANNER features a cynical young man whose troubled past and deadly encounters hinder his search for the father he has yet to meet. THE FAMILY ANGEL is an Italian/American saga about the Americanization of an immigrant family of bootleggers, coalminers, winemakers and priests, and a mysterious black angel who enjoys sticking his nose in the family business.
CHICAGO'S HEADMISTRESS, a prequel and partial parallel to THE FAMILY ANGEL, follows a 1905 Italian street urchin's notorious rise to wealth and power as the headmistress of Night School, Prohibition Chicago's most popular and innovative men's club in the 1920s. Loretta is also the author of A COLLECTION OF GIVERS AND TAKERS, an anthology of twisted stories about the good, the bad, the self-centered and the disillusionedIn addition to the horror anthologies, Damned in Dixie and Hell in the Heartland, Loretta's short stories have appeared in a number of publications including The MacGuffin, Futures Mystery Anthology Magazine, The Scruffy Dog Review, Allegory and Literary Mama, which nominated her story "Tom" for Dzanc's 2010 Best of The Web.
