A troubled police captain. A teenaged witch. A small town's only hope for vengeance.

Matteo Scarpone is a modern-day Job. A man more sinned against than sinning.

Once a cool-headed logician and the pride of Rome's carabinieri, he's devastated when disaster rocks his world.

He is a lost man. Beaten. Shaken. HAUNTED.

Shunned as an embarrassment, he is exiled to a tiny village in the sticks—a hamlet, a burg, a borgo.

But in this land of vineyards and olive groves, life is far from idyllic. Murder, greed, and hate taint the soil once tread by the Etruscans. Now the young captain must unravel a series of murders that pit him against a cynical evil and force him to use a power

—A GIFT

—A CURSE

that he has long denied.

The Marshal of the Borgo follows in the grand tradition of diabolically clever Italian mysteries—but with a fearsome twist. Part whodunit, part ghost story, The Marshal of the Borgo is a most unusual paranormal tale by a recent winner of the Derringer Award for Short Mystery Fiction.

Readers who dream of the dolce vita and enjoy the work of Magdalen Nabb, Andrea Camilleri, Michael Dibdin, and Donna Leon will absolutely love this evocative, sun-drenched story in the life of Captain Scarpone.

Pick up the The Marshal of the Borgo today and discover an adventure filled with vino, witchcraft, and murder!
