In New War Thriller, American Doctor Helps Nazi Hunters Find Elusive Hitler Photographer
In Frank Mari D'Alessandro's The Cassiopeia Grail, a doctor finds rare candid photographs of Adolf Hitler that land him in a deadly cat-and-mouse game
NORTH PROVIDENCE, R.I. (MMD Newswire) March 12, 2009 -- In The Cassiopeia Grail by Frank Mari D'Alessandro, a middle-aged doctor travels to Europe to relive his adventurous youth and instead finds himself caught up with Nazi supporters, deadly espionage and discovering the secrets behind a group of startlingly candid photographs of Adolf Hitler.
In The Cassiopeia Grail, two inmates in an old Boston prison suffer through a storm and begin to read a diary belonging to the father of the younger of the two prisoners. In it, the thriller emerges - the story of a doctor, Mark Francis, who journeys to Europe to locate the friends of his youth, but finds himself drawn into a web of terror.
Including photographs embedded in the novel, D'Alessandro hopes to entertain readers with personal stories and tales of the Francis family while maintaining the evolution of mystery and excitement. The author gained his inspiration for The Cassiopeia Grail from his life experiences, listening to relatives and friends tell their stories and observing lifestyles and cultures abroad.
"There is no place for anarchism in these times," says D'Alessandro, "and yet, in every man, anarchism exists." In The Cassiopeia Grail, the author intends to show how lawlessness can worm its way into even the strongest of governments, creating what he aims to be both a fast-paced thriller and a thinking person's entertainment.
