An Imperfect Revenge — David George Clarke

ARE YOU READY TO BE TERRIFIED …?In 1895, Marchese Salvatore Brocanti abruptly abandoned the villa in the forests of Tuscany that had been his family home for generations. Today, it lies hidden, crumbling and forgotten. But why did the tyrannical artist flee the palatial villa? Was it cursed as he insisted? Did his wife and children really desert him as he claimed? Or were his stories simply smoke and mirrors to hide a more sinister purpose?In 2018, after seeing extraordinary old prints of the villa, photographer Joe Oliver is determined to explore it. While on assignment with travel writer Evie Lorrigan to review the Brocanti estate, he breaks into the villa, only to find a maze of deception beyond his imagination.When Evie mysteriously disappears, Joe is convinced she has become a victim of the villa's secrets. But in attempting to rescue her, will Joe become a victim himself?‘An Imperfect Revenge' is an eerily claustrophobic psychological thriller about one man's crazed mission for retribution, a mission that can still have tragic consequences more than a century later for anyone who ventures too close.
