Murder and Sangiovese

When Michael Dubois, a young architecture professor from Louisiana, lands his first job in one of the most prestigious cities in the world, he's ecstatic. Though fluent in French when the wheels of his 747 touches down at Rome's Leonardo de Vinci Airport, he starts to learn Italian and is quickly drawn to the city's street life. Little does Michael know as he agrees to a late night meeting on a secluded side street that within hours he'll be in a desperate struggle for his life.

While being pursued by both a group of assassins and by the Italian military police, Michael Dubois meets Gabriella, a beautiful middle aged bohemian with dark green eyes and a troubled past.

How long can they keep one step ahead of death? They both know it's only a matter of time before their luck runs out and they're caught or killed. What Michael and Gabriella don't expect is how much they need each other, and what they have no way of knowing is that one of them is connected to the mysterious events threatening to engulf their lives.
