Product Details
- A clever, engaging new novel from bestselling Italian author, Antonio Manzini, following the dashing deputy police chief, Rocco Schiavone, who confronts his most riveting case ever.It’s the bitterly cold spring season in alpine Aosta, and a girl has been kidnapped. Chiara Berguet, daughter of the owners of a local construction firm, was targeted thanks to the sizeable debt her parents owe. But like many a best-laid plan, a blown tire causes the crime to go haywire as the kidnappers’ van skids off the road and crashes into a pair of larch trees. Both the driver and his accomplice die on impact, leaving the girl in the back, gagged and bound and unable to break herself free. Meanwhile Rocco Schiavone wakes to find himself in Anna’s apartment. She’s the best friend of his girlfriend Nora, and memories of the night before, a heated evening with Anna, return to him. As he sneaks out, he sees the first few snowstorm clouds of the spring season move across the sky, an ominous reference that something is off.If trouble at home and a case of kidnapping weren’t enough, Rocco will eventually have to contend with Enzo Baiocchi. Rocco was the one who sent Enzo to prison, and in the process killed Enzo’s brother. Having just escaped from prison, Enzo is heading north with a newly purchased revolver and, clearly, revenge on his mind. And when an unfortunate incident of mistaken identity makes Enzo’s act of revenge even more fiendish, it also presents a gruesome scene for Rocco to discover on his return home.

Crime Editorial Review
**** "Out of Season: A Novel" continues the engaging narrative of Rocco Schiavone, a deeply flawed but irresistibly complex protagonist whose personal demons and professional challenges create a compelling story. Antonio Manzini’s writing draws readers into the shadowy side of Aosta, Italy, where crime, corruption, and organized syndicates intersect with Schiavone’s haunted past. The novel effectively mixes the suspense of a missing person investigation with a keen exploration of human emotions and relationships, drawing parallels between Schiavone’s personal grief and the darker themes of the mystery unfolding around him. Readers appreciate the intricacy of the plot and the sharp development of characters, which improve with each subsequent book. The blend of procedural details with witty dialogue enriches the narrative. Although some feel the pacing slows down at times and criticize the somewhat contrived ending, the overwhelming reception shows that many find the book entertaining and thought-provoking. Manzini's solid character portrayal, especially the realistic conversations and the exploration of grief, leaves a lasting impression that elevates the reading experience. Overall, "Out of Season" proves to be a captivating addition to the Rocco Schiavone series, further establishing the author’s prowess in crafting complex and engaging mysteries that resonate with readers long after they’ve turned the last page. **
