New book announcement: Spring is coming

Spring is coming, later than usual this year 😄 Yes, this is by now the slogan of my upcoming book, When the Spring Comes, which releases in paperback and ebook on July 26th. It is my long-suffered folk horror book set in Sardinia, that I spent the last two years working on, with all the PhD stuff, travelling around, and mental madness. We authors always say that our newest book is the book of our heart, but truth is When the Spring Comes is very dear to my heart. It's a very symbolic, very metaphoric book, which deals with religion, self-discovery, Life and Death, and the Greater Good. It has so much of my personal experience and view of life, so much that writing it took 2 years of fighting through procrastination. It's the book that led me through some deep personal stuff that I needed to solve in order to put them in words. It's also the first book I wrote with a deeper understanding of personality types.

But enough said for now. I'll leave the book description here and watch out for upcoming updates!

«Water is life. Children are sacred. Every year, the people of Riola celebrate the incoming Spring with rituals whose meaning has been long lost. Until one day, the children of the village begin to disappear, one after the other, without a trace. Anna, a misfit among the girls of the village, and Andrìa, a newly appointed priest, team up to find the truth and take the kids back home.

The evidence hints to an old pagan god of rain who would be taking their toll. A lieutenant of the Carabinieri tries to solve the case, fighting against the legends but faced by the elusive words of the people. Surrounded by an atmosphere of mistrust, Anna and Andrìa uncover a reality they had never even imagined.»
