There was only one rule in our neighborhood--never break an oath. But oaths are easy to take and damn hard to keep.


Now I'm staring at my best friend, lying on the floor in a pool of blood, my bullet in his gut. Where the hell did it go wrong?


To understand that you'd have to go back to the beginning, back to when the three of us ruled the neighborhood.

Giacomo lives in Texas now, but he grew up in Cleland Heights, a mixed ethnic neighborhood in Wilmington, Delaware, that sat on the fringes of the Italian, Irish and Polish neighborhoods. The main characters of Murder Takes Time grew up in Cleland Heights and many of the scenes in the book were taken from real-life experiences.
Somehow Giacomo survived the transition to adulthood, but when his kids were young he left the Northeast and settled in Texas, where his wife suggested they get a few animals. They now have a full-blown animal sanctuary with rescues from all over. At last count they had 41 animals—12 dogs, a horse, a three-legged cat and 26 pigs. Oh, and one crazy—and very large—wild boar, who takes walks with Giacomo every day and happens to also be his best buddy.
By day Giacomo is a headhunter, scouring the country for top talent to fill jobs in the biotech and medical device industry. In the evening he helps his wife tend to the animals, and at night—late at night—he turns into a writer.
