Publisher's Synopsis
"An Unbelievable Journey by Fiat into the Criminal Underworld of Italy ..." Wishing to escape his role as a poorly-paid agony aunt for a local newspaper, would-be photo-journalist Peter Cameron-Burnett enlists the help of his friend and travelling companion Toby Vennard to embark on an trip to Mafia-controlled Naples to find a story that will make his name. What awaits them is a hilarious odyssey through Italy in the company of some of the worst gangsters, assassins, hookers and personal development experts in literary history, facing bombs, bullets, hallucinogenic cocktails, earthquake beds, ghosts, agony columns, midget tossing and a stop off at the WangerJam Festival, in the shadow of the world's only surface-to-orbit cargo trebuchet.
