CURL UP WITH A GREAT READ - THE DEATH OF ME: AN INTERNATIONAL CRIME THRILLER (THE FAMILY LEGACY SERIES BOOK 1) BY CAROLYN BOWEN


 He’d rather save the Earth than exploit it. But buried bloodline secrets could force this man of peace into a life he dreads…

David Jones moved to Tuscany to claim some much-needed headspace. Hoping to focus on his philanthropic efforts and find love, he vows to steer clear of his family’s underworld business. But he’s dragged into an ugly web of organized crime when a good friend is heartbreakingly murdered…

Thrust into a leadership role, David navigates the treacherous mob world while becoming romantically entangled with a stunning young female intelligence agent. But even as he faces traitorous threats from within, his new love interest’s standing with Italian authorities might be his fatal undoing.

Will this struggling humanitarian get his happily ever after or end up sleeping with the fishes?

The Death of Me is the sweeping first book in the Legacy series of mafia thriller novels. If you like morally gray characters, expansive European settings, and edge-of-your-seat action, then you’ll adore Carolyn M. Bowen’s gritty tale.

5***** FOR THE DEATH OF ME

Kept me up past my bedtime!


This first book of the Legacy series found me turning pages well into the night. The in-depth character descriptions made me feel a connection to David and Lilia and I needed to see where the story lead, which was down a windy path in Tuscany involving the Italian mafia. Quite the page turner, this will be a favorite for any crime/mystery/romance lover to devour!
