Devastation and resentment over his only sibling's selfish act quickly gives way to a nagging suspicion that he isn't getting the whole truth. Conviction alone is enough to pull Wolf from pressing events in his Colorado Rockies ski resort home of Rocky Points, Colorado, to the entirely foreign land of Northern Italy, and into a deadlier situation than he could have imagined.
With the help of a beautiful officer of the Carabinieri, Wolf must piece together the mystery of his brother's last fateful night without ruffling too many feathers, or paying the ultimate price.
A gritty tale of international mystery and action, Foreign Deceit will keep you guessing until the final pages.

"If there's only one thing I've learned the past week, it's that hesitation kills." Sergeant David Wolf is a member of the Sluice County Sheriff 's Department. While out investigating a murder, he barely escapes becoming a murder victim himself. His ex-wife (and mother of his son), is released from rehab and he wonders if she will stay clean this time. And, Wolf is waiting to see if he will be appointed as the new Sheriff by county council members and the mayor...Wolf receives news, via his mother, that his brother has committed suicide in Lecco, Italy. Since he does not believe that John really killed himself, Wolf travels to Northern Italy to try to prove John was murdered, without causing too much upset in the Italian Carabinieri (and without becoming another victim). Officer Lia Parente is assigned to assist him with his investigation of John's last night...Finally! A mystery series that looks like it will be worth reading! I was immersed in this story from beginning to end. There was a great plot with an intriguing subplot and both were interesting. I must say, I never expected either conclusion. I felt like I travelled from Rocky Point, Colorado (USA) to Lecco, Italia and back with Sergeant Wolf. With him, I followed the clues through the twists and turns — and there were plenty of surprises to keep me entertained along the way. The ending made me want to read the next book now!Good story spoiled by inept writing/editing I liked the beginning of this story. It was pretty well-written and had the kind of plot and characters I like. Some of the syntax was clumsy, but, hey, that can happen. Nobody's perfect.ell, maybe Elmore Leonard. But after a few chapters it fell flat. I enjoyed the story until it became (1)unbelievable and (2) poorly constructed. I believe it could have been saved by an experienced editor, but there didn't seem to be one available. After a few chapters I found myself setting deadlines. "I think it will get better. I'll give it another 10 pages." That kind of thing. FInally, I found myself skimming forward, looking for improvement, but none came. This author has promise, but this book is not up to par.First Novel - Not bad First Novel - not bad.I am not educated enough to detail the talents of this author, but I recognize a well written one from one that could use more work - or better editing.Foreign Deceit is a good if sometimes awkward read. The plot is fully believable if at times not well fleshed out by the story line. Characters are well defined and fit with the story line and technically the novel accurate for a fictional work. However there are several places when reading that the dialog or the story line could have used revision.Having said that, I did enjoy the book enough to purchase the 2nd in the series and hope to find a more experienced author - or perhaps editor - improving their craft.
