New York Times Bestselling Author Kent Heckenlively discusses his new novel - The King of Italy.
In a masterful tapestry of familial honor, historical vendettas, and a relentless quest for justice, Kent Heckenlively's fiction debut, The King of Italy (Arcade; April 16th, 2024; 9781956763959), weaves an unforgettable saga that stretches from the sun-drenched hills of Sicily to the bustling streets of San Francisco, and through the heart of tumultuous Italian politics.
What drives a New York Times bestselling author, known for his fearless battles against corruption, to dive into the depths of historical fiction? The answer lies in Heckenlively's own heritage, a blend of personal myth and the undeniable lure of Italy's storied past. Despite the initial familial lore hinting at a royal lineage, it is the spirit of storytelling, the "never let the truth get in the way of a good story" mantra that breathes life into this novel. Through meticulous research and a profound connection to the Italian ethos, Heckenlively crafts a narrative that is as much a homage to Italy's history as it is a testament to the enduring legacy of its people.
