My Review
My Review
Single word blurb intros really draw my attention! Just from those three words, you know you are going to be in for a thrilling ride, and Luca Pesaro does not disappoint.
I think that the backdrop and occupation of the main character are something that set this novel apart from others in the same genre.
The Romance was a great addition to the novel. I liked the fact that there was the underlying fear of Layla's intentions and the way they had to navigate their feelings and truth.
The novel has many twists and you are right along with Scott thinking you know who is after him. Great surprises along the way.
Luca Pesaro
After spending a few years gaining a degree (LSE) and masters (Bocconi University) in the now mainly discreted pseudo-science that is Economics, he got bored, jumped the gun and became a derivatives trader in financial markets, first with the tragic Lehman Brothers, then with a bunch of other banks, somehow always managing not to blow up. He wrote his first novel in Italian in the mid-nineties, but then decided English worked much better for the type of stuff he liked to read and write, and switched. (Easy to do, he has forgotten most of his written Italian).
Recently he has decided to dedicate himself fully to his great passion since the age of eight – writing, mainly Fiction, but anything that amuses him at any given time. Zero Alternative is his first English novel, and he is hard at work on his second thriller, A Game of Kings.
He is married to the awesome F. and has two children, A. and J. who always manage to annoy, surprise and delight him beyond any reasonable expectation.
