A devoted husband who shields his wife from a criminal gang, Gennaro Lucca is the kind of man whose love makes him dangerous to the people hunting him.

## Who they are

Gennaro is a fugitive husband whose tenderness for his wife, the splendid beautiful Gennaro's other half, is matched by the enemies who want them both silenced. He is caught between hiding and protecting, and his devotion makes him both vulnerable and formidable. His presence in the story raises the stakes of the early investigation, turning a puzzle about a vanished household into a question of who deserves rescue and who is willing to kill for silence.
