Publisher's Synopsis
It has a wonderful cast of characters, array of nationalities, wonderful places and the cars are so sensual. Even a non-racing enthusiast can follow the action and get caught up in it. Bravo! - Rhonda Swayda author
Achille Varzi never did anything by half-measure. When he dressed, he was always immaculate in the latest styles. When he raced cars, he did so to win and become champion. And when he fell in love for the first time, this took over his life completely and totally. Then tragic events out of Achille's control impacted upon him, one after the other. This was too much and Achille's life spiralled out of control, and no matter how much his good friends tried to help, this was beyond them. This is a fictionalised account of 1930s motor racing star, Achille Varzi, who, after the tragedy of war, in 1947 won the first-ever Formula One race.
