Do you know what a lupara is?

Why not let Professor Killfrenzy educate you in Frenzi: When in Rome...Kill?

It's a bloody action saga set to be unleashed in just ten days!

www.amazon.com/Frenzi-When-...

Remember: in a Point of Impact book, the bad guys definitely do not win.
A page from the print copy of Frenzi: When in Rome...Kill! reading as follows: "As it opened, he had the Browning up, one-handed. He needed to identify this guy before he figured out that it wasn’t his boss paying him a visit. It was going to be close. The flashlight helped, turning Frenzi into a silhouette and putting the guard in the spotlight. Frenzi saw the guy squint. He was a heavyset goon with brown suspenders and a chopped down lupara in his pudgy hands. That shotgun would rip Frenzi in half if the fucker had a chance to use it. The Killfrenzy ensured that he wouldn’t get the opportunity. The Browning bucked in Frenzi’s fist. The first slug found the hollow of the man’s throat, where his collar bone opened. The blood sprayed outward in a color an artist type might call ‘arterial red’. He was pushed backwards, eyes wide in shock. Frenzi saw no one else in the freight car and put another bullet in the dying guard. The slide on the Browning locked back, taunting him with the lack of bullets. He glared at it in disgust, dropping it since he had no additional ammo for the pistol. He still had the gate man’s revolver. And now a sawn-off shotgun. The lupara, as the Mafia called it, was a fantastic killing tool at close range. That was where the name came from. If you shot a man in the face with one of the homemade murder tools, the end result was similar to if wolves had torn the flesh to ribbons. There would be a closed casket funeral. Frenzi hefted the double-barrel and tucked it under his left arm. It was then that he heard the soft whimpering. The girl was huddled in the corner, a threadbare pink blanket thrown over her head. It was a miserable sort of shield to try and protect her from the wretched course her young life had taken. For a man who had been the..."

It's an honor to have our first Goodreads review for Frenzi: When in Rome...Kill!

This early review by the insightful @coyhall.bsky.social touches on all the themes present with a knowledgeable eye.

Made my evening to read this!

Ya'll can snag it November 17th!

A review of Frenzi: When in Rome...Kill! by Coy Hall reading: "All roads lead to death in the world of John Frenzi. When in Rome … Kill! is another instance where trouble finds Frenzi. Here he stumbles upon an attempted kidnapping in a Pittsburgh parking garage. And when he does, we’re off. Turns out it’s the daughter of a Robber Baron type, Charles Martin (Martino). He sends Frenzi to Rome and Bologna after his little girl. In Italy, Frenzi encounters killers of the rabid dog variety, the coldest of which is Mad Dog D’Amato. You see these names? Add the likes of Ruggero Fabrizio, Claudio, Enzo, and others and you start to get the idea. This book is a hotblooded tribute to the Eurocrime films of the 1970s, particularly poliziotteschi. Frenzi does his thing, racking up enough bodies to fill an ossuary in the catacombs. There’s enough blood and sex to satisfy the reader in search of good pulp storytelling. Intelligently layered into that are political and socioeconomic features of Italy’s Years of Lead in the 70s without being over the top. You see the worker unrest and acts of terror and acts of blood commonplace in the battle between right and left wing ideologues of the time."

I live in a very middle-American neighborhood in PA. I’m sitting on my front porch with a cigarette enjoying the autumn air. A dude rolls by on an electric scooter, grown man, and shouts, “I smell steaks! Smells good!” I’m not cooking steaks but I smell them now too. He’s right!

Do not buy my books from Amazon or Down and Out Books directly. I will not get paid. I should get paid, as per my contract, but in an email from D&O I’ve been told ‘no further payments will be issued.’
It absolutely blows it is ending this way, but man, pay your authors what they are owed.

I really love working with publishers whose catalogue shows they care about literature and new voices. I think indie publishing is where the important risks get taken, where we keep art alive.
