Leandro Del Gaudio's first scoop
A scientific informant from Modena strangled in a bed and breakfast in Mergellina, a career Neapolitan doctor, a chief physician from Bologna ready to assume an important public office. And two journalists - he from Naples, she from Modena - who confront each other, collide, compete and collaborate in the resolution of the Neapolitan mystery.
Year 2020, full Covid emergency, Italy realizes the importance of training a valid category of doctors, when a plot that began thirty years earlier, at the time of the Italia Novanta World Cup, ends. And it is the traces left by the murderer - in a narcissistic, sophisticated way - inside the room of the b&b, which bring attention back to the choices, missteps and crimes committed by the novel's protagonists at the time of accessing the medical profession.
"Magical nights, chasing a goal"... then Caniggia's goal which becomes the symbol of a dream interrupted at the most beautiful moment, a scene that bursts into the story as the classic decisive turning point, which allows the two journalist-detectives to end the hunt for their First scoop.
A story that spans a thirty-year period, from the tapes recorded on cassettes by university students to the social channels used by the two journalists to weave together their life experience: between an intimate relationship and a desire for professional affirmation, between the dream of a normal life and the coveted individual redemption.
Two distant eras - 1990 and 2020 - which find a point of contact in Primo scoop, a novel that allows the author to return to themes dear to his professional training: the difference between judicial truth and factual reality, the impossibility of enclosing in a file all the nuances that color the rhythm of a journalistic investigation.
Crime and judicial reporter for «Il Mattino», awarded in 2011 by the Campania Region for his commitment in the field as an anti-Camorra journalist, Del Gaudio builds pages of emotional impact, with a language that forgets good manners to tell a story probable, conceived as a thriller and constructed as a fiction script.
