Ambrogio Beccarria - Volume 1 (1349-1414) of the Beccarria Chronicles!


"Picture a brute in a backwater whose word is law. Here, the fix is in and those in the know are on the take.
Now, hang it in the dawn of the Italian Renaissance. Count Federigo rules from his crime capital,
Fabriano, a tough, underprivileged sort of town surrounded by hostile mountains swarming with cutthroats.
Young Ambrogio grows up with thugs, beggars, prostitutes and smugglers for companions.
He rises to the rank of strong arm for the Count but when painter Paolo Doni comes to Fabriano to
fulfill a commission, this gangster gofer's story takes an unexpected turn."
