Crime – Murder – Guilt – Redemption

Colonel Emilio Gariboldi is a complex man. He is also a veteran of the
Second Italo-Abyssinian War.

An idealist as a young man, he had hoped to emulate his hero Italo Balbo
and hence joined the Italian air force.

A fatal encounter with an enemy intruder while camped with his air force
unit on the heights of an elevated plateau near Axum in the northern parts
of Ethiopia changes his life forever.

The discovery of the body of a young black woman prisoner found in bed next

human trafficking.

Almost two decades later, another young black girl is found dead at the
foot of the Terzano Tower in Campobasso.

Are the crimes related?

About the Author

I was born in Montorio nei Frentani, province of Campobasso, in the Molise
region of Italy. My father, Costanzo Nicodemo, emigrated to Canada and
worked in Montreal, Quebec. The rest of the family followed later. My
parents then built their home in the northeast of Montreal where I spent
most of my early years.

I graduated from Loyola College and went on to obtain my Master’s
degree in physics at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario. A paper
was published from that work in the Journal of Polymer Science Part A-2:
Polymer Physics.

Afterwards, I traveled throughout Europe and Egypt. Once back in Montreal,
I started a music retail business and later went on to music production. One
international hit came out of that endeavor: ‘Living on Video’
by the Montreal group Trans-X.

I am now retired and living in Nova Scotia with my friend Louise, dogs
Daisy & Boo, & cat Cora.
