"Tobin astutely looks at the varying possibilities that would have
led to Gatti's death. Such an approach intelligently and
respectfully piques interest in a real-life mystery that has left
Gatti's fans and family in need of both solace and satisfactory
answers."-Kirkus Reviews "[Tobin is] an intelligent writer and a
thoughtful person, tender even, who writes with authority...I know
he's invited me to a place I'd not have accessed without him."-Bart
Barry, 15rounds.com "Tobin's purpose is welcomely, deliberately,
indefinite. Instead of a Shakespearean tragedy, or yet another
bloody chapter of boxing's wider legacy...Tobin's document becomes
a meditation on the human condition..."-Jack Porter, The Sportsman
Arturo "Thunder" Gatti hung up his gloves in 2007, closing the book
on a boxing career that bordered on the mythical. At long last, he
seemed ready to leave the business of blood behind for a long,
happy life outside the ring. His retirement was celebrated-boxing's
modern gladiator had earned his freedom. Two years later, he was
gone-found dead in a hotel in Brazil under mysterious
circumstances. He was only thirty-seven years old. Did he commit
suicide? Or was he killed by his new wife? In Killed in Brazil?,
Jimmy Tobin recounts the dramatic events surrounding Gatti's tragic
demise and shines a light on what may have happened on that fateful
night. Killed in Brazil is the fourth in the Hamilcar Noir series.

true crime, featuring riveting stories captured in high-quality
prose, with cover art inspired by classic pulp novels. Perfect Gift
