Alfredo Acle Tomasini

Just Gone Alfredo Acle Tomasini

In a fast-paced thriller, Alfredo Acle Tomasini, intertwines three parallel stories with sensitivity and a deft touch: a comatose man that, even unconscious, is able to hear and reflect; his children, without a clear reason, cling on to keep him alive against his will and despite his long time partner's insistence to let him die; the plot of a novel that she reads to him at his bedside, because she feels that this is a way to connect with him, because the novel recounts events that marked their lives. As in The untimely death of the President, the author manages to pose a witty and entertaining novel within the best tradition of the suspense novels with all its ingredients: crime, intrigue, romance and thrills. Just gone exposes starkly how every person reveals his true values when subject to extreme conditions; No one escapes their true identity under such circumstances -neither the traitor, the blood relative nor the loyal companion.
