About this ebook
“...such an ornate thriller and so fantastically told!”–Uncle Book Blog, UK
“... a worthy follow-up to the great first book in this series...Great suspense...“–Kate, Amazon Reviewer
“...an intriguing and cleverly plotted thriller... a complex net of lies, cover-ups and diversions... far from obvious or predictable.”—Christoph Fischer, Goodreads
In Book 2 of The Truth Beauty Trilogy, the dark, edgy saga continues. In Geneva, lovely Italian scholar Lina Lentini is caught up in the shadowy world of Swiss banking. Schemes of betrayal and murder begin to surface when her friend Clara, a bank employee, disappears. Clara's American lover Marc joins Lina in a desperate search, but they find only mysteries until they head to a quiet island in the Bahamas. There a stunning turn that no one sees coming changes everything.
“...just as beautifully written as the first. The character's are well developed and believable, the plot is fast-paced and full of unexpected turns, and the ending will leave you impatient for the third installment of this trilogy.”—Comic Book Nerd, Amazon Reviewer
Like The Obsession, The Disappearance has complex, sharply drawn characters and shocking twists. This is another compelling read with a powerful payoff. And look for Book 3, The Tryst, in 2014.

About what he calls his “checkered past,” LoCicero says: “At one time or another I've found work as an industrial spy; a producer of concert videos for Rolling Stone's greatest singer of all time; one of the few male contributors to Gloria Steinem's Ms. Magazine; a writer of an appellate brief for those convicted in one of Detroit's most sensational drug trials; the author of a true crime book that garnered a bigger advance than a top ten best-selling American novel; a project coordinator/fundraiser for a humanities council; a small business owner; the writer/producer/director of numerous long-form documentaries; a golf course clerk; a college instructor who taught courses in advanced composition, music and poetry appreciation, introduction to philosophy, remedial English, and American Literature--all in the same term; a ghostwriter; a maker of corporate/industrial videos; a member of a highway surveying crew; a speechwriter for auto executives; a TV producer of live event specials; an editorial writer; the creator of 15-second corporate promos for the PBS series Nature; and a novelist. “There is a sense in which that last occupation was the reason for all the others. Almost anyone who's ever tried to make ends meet as a novelist knows what I'm talking about.”

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The twists and turns don't let you down, loads of things revealed and answers I'd never even considered. The plot moves along so intriguingly I couldn't have read it faster.The plot was interesting. The atmosphere was dark and brooding. The characters were great. I hope this author writes more stories since there is a wonderful imagination there full of ideas that make you think. Good read. I want more.
