"Like the best noir writers-and make no mistake, he is among the best - Izzo not only has a keen eye for detail . . . but also digs deep into what makes men weep."-Time Out New York "Rich, ambitious, and passionate." - Washington Post "Izzo provides another guided tour of the underbelly of Marseilles (so extensive that it seems to swallow the whole city) that's bracing in its wit and velocity." - Kirkus (starred review), Praise for Total Chaos "Izzo's Marseilles is ravishing. Every street, cafe and house has it's own character."-- Globe and Mail "Like the best noir writers--and make no mistake, he is among the best -- Izzo not only has a keen eye for detail . . . but also digs deep into what makes men weep."-- Time Out New York "Just as Raymond Chandler and James Ellroy made Los Angeles their very own, so Mr. Izzo has made Marseilles so much more than just another geographical setting."-- The Economist "The Marseilles trilogy may be the most lyrical hard-boiled writing yet."-- The Nation "Reading Izzo's novels, you're bound to cry sooner or later."-- Le Monde "Rich, ambitious, and passionate."-- Washington Post "Izzo provides another guided tour of the underbelly of Marseilles (so extensive that it seems to swallow the whole city) that's bracing in its wit and velocity."-- Kirkus (Starred review), Praise for Total Chaos "Izzo's ability to describe Marseilles and to make his readers feel the multiracial reality of that city so directly and authentically is fascinating." --Andrea Camilleri, author of the bestselling Inspector Montalbano series "Izzo's Marseilles is ravishing.

Synopsis
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. When his oldest and best friend is murdered, Fabio Montale turns his back on a police force marred by corruption and takes the fight against the local mafia into his own hands., In Jean-Claude Izzo's "Mediterranean noir" mysteries, the city of Marseilles is explosive, breathtakingly beautiful, and deadly. This first book in the Marseilles trilogy introduces readers to Fabio Montale, a disenchanted cop who turns his back on a police force marred by corruption and racism and, in the name of friendship, takes the fight against the mafia into his own hands. Ugo, Manu, and Fabio grew up together on the mean streets of Marseilles where friendship means everything. They promised to stay true to one another and swore that nothing would break their bond. But people and circumstances change. Ugo and Manu have been drawn into the criminal underworld of Europe's toughest, most violent and vibrant city. When Manu is murdered and Ugo returns from abroad to avenge his friend's death, only to be killed himself, it is left to the third in this trio, Detective Fabio Montale, to ensure justice is done. Despite warnings from both his colleagues in law enforcement and his acquaintances in the underworld, Montale cannot forget the promise he once made Manu and Ugo. He's going to find their killer no matter the consequences. Fabio Montale is the perfect protagonist in for a fabled city of melancholy beauty.
