2017ill., br. Una telefonata misteriosa annuncia ad Andrea una morte di overdose. Lui, un giovane e affermato giornalista residente a Milano, decide di tornare nel suo paese dopo circa dieci anni. Il ritorno nella casa dove ha vissuto la sua adolescenza lo fa affondare nell'oscurità del tempo passato e rivivere eventi quasi del tutto dimenticati. Nel suo flashback ripercorre varie tappe: il dramma della malattia del fratello, affetto da schizofrenia; la ricerca di una via d'uscita dalla monotonia della piccola realtà di provincia e il fascino dei ragazzi più grandi che appaiono imbattibili; la ricerca del prestigio sociale attraverso falsi miti generazionali, come la droga e la violenza; le leggi non scritte del branco. È un periodo di ribellione e di assoluta sete di libertà che induce il protagonista e i suoi amici a un escalation di eventi che li condurrà sull'orlo del baratro. Quando Andrea scopre l'identità del defunto, inizia la sua personalissima indagine. Incontrando gli amici d'infanzia, il giornalista scopre che la droga è sempre il filo conduttore degli eventi ma non è la sola protagonista che porterà all'epilogo inaspettato e drammatico.

2020ill., br. Fermati! Un consiglio? Un monito? Una minaccia? Tutte le volte in cui ci si trova di fronte a questo imperativo, esiste sempre un'alternativa. Ma la scelta, qualsiasi essa sia, può cambiare le nostre vite. Succede a Carol Verbani, avvocato impegnato nella ricerca della verità su un affare di ecomafia che sconvolge il mondo politico di Pavia. Succede ad Anghela Vasilyeva, la donna che arriva in coma all'ospedale Sant'Andrea di Livorno in seguito a un incidente stradale. Succede anche a chi vive nelle nuove terre dei fuochi del Nord Italia, dove si muore senza trovare giustizia. Finché un giorno qualcosa cambia, grazie al coraggio e alla determinazione di chi non si ferma di fronte a un assassino, indagando su una scomparsa e restituendo un'identità a chi l'aveva perduta. Attraverso le storie di molte vite quotidiane, il dramma di chi cerca risposte che non ha mai avuto, avventura, suspense e lo sgretolamento dello scudo protettivo che ha sostenuto la finzione di chi non trova il coraggio di affrontare le proprie debolezze, "Fermati" alza il sipario su realtà che, in modo analogo, sono proprie di molti luoghi d'Italia. Con audiolibro letto dall'autrice.
