Description

In the mythology of the neighboring Mesopotamian Hurrian people the storm god Teshub kills his father Kumarbi, sometimes jointly with his grandfather Anu in reciprocity for an attempted patricide by Kumarbi. Cesar Correia (born 1960), CEO of InfoLink Technologies, Ltd., killed his father Jaoquim Correia and dumped the body in the Assiniboine River on April 26, 1984. [3] He later confessed to the crime. [4]

When a woman is beheaded in a park outside Rome and her six-year-old son goes missing, the police unit assigned to the case arrests the woman’s husband and awaits his confession. But the city’s Chief of Major Crimes has his doubts and assigns two of Italy’s top analytical minds to the case: Deputy Captain Colomba Caselli, a fierce, warrior-like detective still reeling from a horrific mass killing she survived, and Dante Torre, a man who spent his childhood trapped inside a concrete silo. Fed through the gloved hand of a masked kidnapper who called himself “the Father,” Dante emerged from his ordeal with crippling claustrophobia but, also, with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge.Ningling Ge (1032-1048), the crown prince of Western Xia, killed his father Emperor Jingzong of Western Xia , because his wife was seduced by Jingzong.

These characters were so vividly drawn I can easily picture them right now-Dante with his endless coffee and cigarettes and Columba with her piercing green eyes and often sarcastic attitude. Together they are both damaged, but stronger because of it, and because of each other. And yet alongside the scandal of the violence, disruption and discontinuity and the centrality she gives to the traumatic nature of sexuality inherent in psychic development, Rosine traces how Ulugh Beg (1394–1449) of the Timurid Empire was killed by his son Abdal-Latif Mirza, who also killed his own brother 'Abd al-'Aziz a few days later. He as such became the ruler of the empire, only to be killed by his cousin Abdallah Mirza six months later. Fed through the gloved hand of a masked kidnapper who called himself “The Father,” Dante emerged from his ordeal with crippling claustrophobia but, also, with an unquenchable thirst for knowledge and hyper-observant capacities. Your description of the claustrophobia of incarceration is gripping. Did you research this, or did it all come from a vivid imagination?It is true, in part. At first, I have in mind the characters’ paths and the main twists, but many come as I write, too. I never know exactly what will happen in my novels, otherwise I get bored. I am my first reader, and a demanding reader too, even with myself. I have to be constantly surprised, so I don’t lose interest. 🙂 You’ve written 50 screenplays and eight novels but this is your first one in English. Quite a debut! How did you find writing in English, Sandrone? There are many twists and turns along the way, and a fabulous, richly satisfying ending. But you may want to sleep with the light on for a while after finishing this book. Dante Torre spent eleven young years in captivity - held by a man known only as The Father - before outwitting his abductor. Now working for the police force, Torre's methods are unorthodox but his brilliance is clear. When a young child goes missing in similar circumstances in Rome, Torre must confront the demons of his past to attempt to solve the case. Interestingly, the author has never written in English before. Dazieri is Italian and has penned eight bestselling novels and more than 50 screenplays in his native language. Kill The Father is written in what I would call American-English; until I looked the author up I assumed he was from somewhere like New York or LA.
