History is written in blood.

The unstoppable Annibale Canessa is back and looking for justice, in this second chapter full of mysteries and suspense.

Taking a risk has never been a problem for former Carabinieri officer Annibale Canessa: it wasn’t a problem when he was the head of the anti-terrorism squad in Italy in the Seventies, and it isn’t now that he’s back in action. With a sidelong glance that can either incinerate or seduce you, Annibale “Tank” Canessa seems changed now that he shares his life with Carla Trovati, the young, irresistible journalist that stole his heart.
But for those who believe in justice, nothing can ever really change. So when the Mossad provides the evidence that could reopen the old case of a terrorist attack which took place in Italy during a summer in the early Eighties, Canessa decides to investigate.
Dark shadows from the past come back for one last lethal showdown and Annibale finds himself tangled up in Cold War secrets and unresolved business. As he investigates the international enigmas and tries to uncover all the red herrings of that bloody summer, he’ll end up putting at stake everything he cares about the most, in the name of the truth.
