2020br. Igor è un brillante specialista di prodotto per Epigen, un'importante azienda italiana di biotecnologie. Un'indagine a lui commissionata, basata su certezze evoluzionistiche ormai corroborate, lo condurrà nel mondo del darwinismo. Ma nulla è come sembra e quella che si prospettava essere una commessa come le altre porterà invece Igor a mettere in discussione le sue certezze e a rischiare la sua vita. Una profonda ed estenuante lotta fra ciò che si crede e ciò che si sa. «Dai tu le regole, o se vuoi chiamalo linguaggio. La cavia si muoverà dentro gli schemi che gli hai imposto, e se non è particolarmente sveglia avrà il terrore di inventare nuove regole o cercare falle in quelle già imposte. Chi non accetta le regole di un sistema si condanna all'esilio, esito che non accetterà, perché l'altro aspetto che muove l'uomo, oltre alla ribellione, è la paura. Specialmente quella di rimanere da solo».
2015brossura In un futuro molto prossimo, leggermente distopico ma molto simile alla nostra realtà, un gruppo di giovani molto disillusi e nichilisti ma apparentemente normali formano una modesta organizzazione simil-terroristica. Il loro scopo è quello di cercare di destabilizzare gli equilibri politici e sociali della zona in cui vivono per creare i presupposti di una rivolta. All'interno di un ambiente in forte crisi e in rapida decadenza si muovono le vicende, dalle tinte molto accese, di ragazzi senza prospettive, che hanno il loro presente e non possono avere altro.
2016ril. Lucas è un detective. Nel suo presente gli sono rimasti solo il nome e il lavoro. Il suo passato è una ferita sempre aperta da quando un evento sconvolgente ha segnato la sua vita... e la sua mente. Come un automa attraversa i delitti su cui è chiamato a investigare, mettendo al servizio della giustizia il suo intuito straordinario, quasi visionario, e la sua sensibilità persino eccessiva. Fino a quando viene coinvolto suo malgrado in un caso diverso da tutti gli altri: una giovane donna trovata morta con il terrore negli occhi e nessun segno di violenza apparente. Lucas sa che il colpevole è un assassino seriale e ne ha conferma da Anna, psichiatra profiler, abituata a scandagliare il male in tutte le sue forme, da quando lei stessa, da ragazza, ha vissuto un'esperienza traumatizzante. Lucas e Anna annaspano in un labirinto di follia in cui i ricordi del loro passato, tenuti troppo a lungo sepolti, riemergono taglienti come vetri rotti in un'indagine che li coinvolge da vicino, lasciandoli devastati di fronte a una verità impensabile.
2014brossura Un antico manoscritto compare all'improvviso dal buio di un'epoca ignota. Il suo contenuto - per volontà del suo autore - deve essere rivelato dopo settanta generazioni. Le imperscrutabili vie del destino assegnano ad Alberto Nencini, giovane avvocato fiorentino, l'onore e l'onere di esaudire il desiderio di uno scriba sconosciuto che racconta una storia alternativa e inaudita vissuta da protagonista. La catena delle generazioni coinvolge l'avvocato come ultimo legittimo proprietario e lo pone, suo malgrado, al centro di un intrigo in cui ogni mezzo è lecito pur di mettere le mani sul prezioso oggetto. Intuito il pericolo, forze potenti e misteriose non possono permettere che gran parte della civiltà occidentale venga annientata da una nuova sconvolgente verità. Da qui il tentativo di appropriarsi del rotolo per ricacciare nel nulla l'idea di cui è portatore. Dopo una serie di colpi di scena e di eventi drammatici, Nencini cercherà di portare a termine il rischioso compito con il supporto amorevole e straziato di Nora, la sua bella e innamoratissima compagna. Criptico e allusivo, enigmatico e pieno di rimandi nascosti, il thriller - avvincente e di non comune livello culturale - trova, infine, il suo sorprendente epilogo in una domanda che il lettore avveduto non potrà non porsi: e se le cose fossero davvero andate così?
