Publisher's Synopsis
Three Americans and two Italians are being held for ransom, and Homeland Security has only 72 hours to save their lives.
When US expatriate Jimmy D. Wheeler-a dolce vita buff and pundit of Rome's intrigues-is asked to help, he keeps mum. He has bigger plans.
All that seems to matter to him is the love of Chiara, his Circe, his enchantress, his foremost reason for being in Rome.
Follow him, and Jimmy D. will usher you through the Eternal City's splendor with its romantic entanglements suffused in a riveting world of mystery, international crime, and suspense.
