At the end of the 1970s, in Colletta, Liguria, a family is spending a beautiful summer time in Colletta. But as the young members of the family are busy either flirting with young waitresses or watching the Argentina World Cup competition, their father, Peter Kentish, an investigative journalist has other serious plans. His interview with an ex-CIA agent, a dissilusioned American.
His journalistic curiosity is rewarded with some precious details leading deep into the already dark realm of Italian politics.
The Colletta Cassettes by Bruno Noble republished last year, is a perfect weekend read for readers passionate about politics and smart political conspiracies, set in a very enjoyable location. The author is informed, with passion for detail, and creating a well balanced story, where family interests are competing with ongoing geopolitical turmoils.
The book is enjoyable and smart, with so many different elements from differents areas - geopolitics, social classes clash, Italian traditions, nature and many more - brought together to adorn an eventful story. I love stories with investigative journalists, therefore I followed up closely Peter Kentish endeavours.
Rating: 3.5 stars
