A heinous, double murder in a squalid apartment on the wrong side of town pits Inspector Lojacono, Di Nardo and the rest of the motley collection of cops known as the 'bastards' of the Pizzofalcone precinct against their superiors, the press, and the local political hierarchy. Only by bringing the killer to justice can they save their reputations and the department. De Giovanni is one of the most versatile, prolific, and successful European mystery in Europe.
Transferred to Naples after a tangle with the Sicilian Mafia, Detective Inspector Giuseppe Lojacono feels that he's marking time, waiting out an awkward scandal. But when the bloodied bodies of teenagers start appearing around the city, victims of a strange and sinister killer whom police and locals take to calling The Crocodile, it soon becomes clear to Lojacono that the killings are more than simple Mafia hits, and that the labyrinthine streets of Naples are more deadly than he'd dared imagine. Can he catch the assassin in time to save the city's innocents? A bestseller in Italy, The Crocodile is a dark, bloody story of murder and revenge that will grip and thrill you.
This is Naples as you've never seen it before. A chaotic, shadowy
city full of ominous echoes and dark alleyways where each
inhabitant seems too absorbed by his or her own problems to give a
damn about anybody else. And that is exactly what makes it possible
for a cold, methodical killer to commit his atrocious crimes
largely undisturbed, to merge with the crowd as if he were
invisible. The newspapers call him "The Crocodile" because, like a
crocodile, when he devours his own children, he cries. And like a
crocodile he is a perfect killing machine: he waits and watches
until his prey is within range, and then he strikes.
