A thriller novel about a case of social and civil injustice set in the wonderful world of sailing and the sea, dirtied by plots and intrigues. How many have not happened to take a nickname to friends and relatives? The Hunchback, the Worst, Alverman, the Soul, Cain, Stutter, the Weaver, the Stranger, the Neck, the Champion, the Humble, the Dwarf, Lucifer, Barabbas, Slim, the Cat, the Fox, Lucignolo, the Puppeteer, have contributed to the ruin of Nine, to the denunciation, to the condemnation, to the humiliation. It takes place in Trieste the wonderful city of the bora, the city of Porto...
"...that wonderful view: the blue sea in the gulf in that part of the Croatian and Slovenian coast, wrapped and surmounted by the intense green of forests, terraces and sinkholes".
...which sees the Nations Cup of Sailing, a tournament for the Nations, a great project of Nine, grown up in the magical world of Sailing, to the point of turning it into a job.
"Until that moment, sailors had always been considered, by the general public, athletes of inferior level, because their sport, in the common opinion, required only great assets, little physical and little preparation".
...but to achieve this he needs collaborators and professionals who will bring him to ruin, as he has not come to terms with the political interests that gravitate around any thriving project in any city. Nine, he sins in naivety and falls into the network of unscrupulous men, who sell their soul and friendship, for those famous 30 coins that we all know.
"In the end he was sold and thrown to the public opinion, the one that condemns you only on the basis of suspicions, rumors, the biggest lies; he was the monster to be thrown on the front page with a smokescreen of infamies..."
Nine is a little bit Edmond Dantes but in sports version. The events take place in a single night, a night that transforms a champion, entrepreneur and craftsman, into a serial killer who decides to take the law into his own hands...
"I'm not a serial killer, I'm simply the appointed executioner, the executioner that a weak, colluded system has never appointed."
Nine seems to play the role of Charles Bronson, in the 1974 film "The Night Executioner"; a night in which everything happens in a synchronized and perfectly organized way. A journey that will change the destiny of so many men.
"...it was perfectly useless to argue that time is a gentleman, that in the end he would get justice and everyone would apologize to him; he would have to live at least as long as a vampire or a highlander to finally see justice from that false gentleman who answers to the name of Time."
