Description

The Marseilles trilogy, featuring ex-cop Fabio Montale, is a classic of European crime fiction. Its publication was the catalyst for the foundation of an entire literary movement, Mediterranean noir, and made its author into a celebrity overnight. Montale has resigned from the force, but when his cousin's son goes missing he is dragged back to the mean streets of a violent, crime-infested Marseilles.

Jean-Claude Izzo was born in Marseilles, France, in 1945. He achieved astounding success with his Marseilles Trilogy ("Total Chaos," "Chourmo," "Solea"). In addition to the books in this trilogy, his two novels ("The Lost Saliors," and "A Sun for the Dying") and one collection of short stories ("Vivre fatigue") also enjoy great success with both critics and the public. Izzo died in 2000 at the age of fifty-five.
