br. Milano. Un misterioso killer inizia la sua macabra e spietata "giustizia" seriale trucidando le proprie vittime non prima di organizzare un sinistro gioco simbolico dove nulla è lasciato al caso. Sulle sue tracce si muove l'originale squadra investigativa capeggiata dall'ombroso commissario Verri detto Geko e dall'estroso ispettore Gabriele Conti. Un thriller psicologico, ricco di palpiti e colpi di scena.

br. Questo romanzo è soprattutto un romanzo sull'uccisione della bellezza nei nostri territori e sulla realtà drammatica del fenomeno degli incendi boschivi, con realismo e assoluta aderenza a fatti che conosciamo dalle cronache. In un flusso quasi ininterrotto di parole, la vicenda prende inizio con la descrizione di un incendio in un bosco sul Monte Argentea nell'Appennino ligure. Danni alla vegetazione, agli insetti, e agli animali, per arrivare ai due protagonisti della storia. Si trovano nel bosco per un picnic: Rosa e Fiore. Fiore e Rosa sono amanti. Si trovano in un bosco che, benché parco aperto al pubblico, è di proprietà di Silvano, il marito di Rosa. Rosa e Fiore riusciranno a sfuggire a un incendio voracissimo che nulla sembra voler risparmiare?
br. In un futuro prossimo, un'epidemia globale sta sterminando gli uomini, con particolare accanimento verso il genere maschile. Non esistono vaccini, non ci sono cure. Scienziati, ricercatori, militari, tutti lavorano alla disperata ricerca di un rimedio che possa creare un argine alla pandemia. Ma è inutile. Il paziente 0 non viene individuato, qualsiasi strategia appare inefficace. E poi, perché milioni di persone si stanno dirigendo verso l'Equatore? Chi sono i componenti delle "Sorellanze" che spuntano in ogni angolo del globo? Infine, quelli che vengono definiti "immuni" lo saranno veramente? Nel caos tremendo di una società che va letteralmente in pezzi, nel collasso della civiltà, il biologo Marco Soleri tenta in tutti i modi di trovare una soluzione che sciolga i vari enigmi. Ma dovrà fare molta attenzione a non scatenare qualcosa di ancora più pericoloso in vista di un futuro completamente diverso da quanto vissuto dall'umanità fino a quel momento.
