With The Bonds of Silence, following in the footsteps of a new hero, the young journalist Lorenzo Cortese, Gilda Piersanti plunges the reader into the highly romantic meanderings of the Calabrian mafia.

THE BLACK NOVEL: AN ITALIAN TRADITION
Meeting with Marcello Fois & Gilda Piersanti
Noir and crime fiction are two genres in which Italy has made its mark. The Giallo is asserted in the Peninsula since the middle of the twentieth century with representatives such as Giorgio Scerbanenco. A tradition that is still alive today, with Marcello Fois and Gilda Piersanti as worthy heirs.
