The Florentine Dagger

Marco de Lucca, a young Boston advertising executive, is sent by his company to Italy to write up an ad campaign with a large firm situated just outside of Torino in Northern Italy.
He has just arrived at the Torino railway station when a beautiful lady runs up to him and begs him to pretend that he is her ex-lover who had suddenly disappeared a few years previous.
Agreeing with her to do so leads Marco into the midst of a mysterious intrigue that makes playing his pretend role as her lover crucial to keep an estate worth millions from falling into the wrong hands.
His actions to stay alive and help solve her problem while at the same time do the job for which he had been sent to Italy leads to an exciting, romantic story and unforeseen ending.
