It all started with a horse race in picturesque Palermo, Sicily, but this wasn't your typical race with rules designed to protect the horses, jockeys and bettors; this was a Mafia sponsored street race, a blood sport free-for-all more suited for the Coliseum than the backstreets of the Sicilian town. Race promoter, Santos Luzzato, nephew to Nicky The Mushroom Fungo, wanted in on his American Uncle's horse racing connections with the LA triads. The race leads to a series of decisions that end with a suspicious car accident that kills billionaire heiress and race horse owner, Josephine Somersby Murphy, sister to the Governor of California, Samuel Somersby, a man with Presidential ambitions and ties to Johnny Luck, LA triad big shot.
Love, sex, murder, and race horses create a toxic mix of intrigue and suspense that drives Luck's protégé, Jesse James, to Sicily, Argentina, England, and Switzerland in her pursuit of the truth. Who killed Josephine Murphy? Was it Luzzato, Nicky Fungo, Murphy's brother, the Governor, or was it someone closer the Jesse.
Palermo, a place to die.
