About this product
Product Information
"Tobin astutely looks at the varying possibilities that would have led to Gatti's death. Such an approach intelligently and respectfully piques interest in a real-life mystery that has left Gatti's fans and family in need of both solace and satisfactory answers." -- Kirkus Reviews "[Tobin is] an intelligent writer and a thoughtful person, tender even, who writes with authority...I know he's invited me to a place I'd not have accessed without him." --Bart Barry, 15rounds.com "Tobin's purpose is welcomely, deliberately, indefinite. Instead of a Shakespearean tragedy, or yet another bloody chapter of boxing's wider legacy...Tobin's document becomes a meditation on the human condition..." -- The Sportsman Arturo "Thunder" Gatti hung up his gloves in 2007, closing the book on a boxing career that bordered on the mythical. At long last, he seemed ready to leave the business of blood behind for a long, happy life outside the ring. His retirement was celebrated--boxing's modern gladiator had earned his freedom. Two years later, he was gone--found dead in a hotel in Brazil under mysterious circumstances. He was only thirty-seven years old. Did he commit suicide? Or was he killed by his new wife? In Killed in Brazil? , Jimmy Tobin recounts the dramatic events surrounding Gatti's tragic demise and shines a light on what may have happened on that fateful night. Killed in Brazil is the fourth in the Hamilcar Noir series. Hamilcar Noir is "Hard-Hitting True Crime" that blends boxing and true crime, featuring riveting stories captured in high-quality prose, with cover art inspired by classic pulp novels. Perfect Gift For Boxing and True Crime Fans! Killed in Brazil? , combined with other books in the Hamilcar Noir series, makes a great gift for fans of stories about the darker side of boxing. Books in the Hamilcar Noir series also make for a great gift idea for true crime fans--whether they are a die-hard boxing fan or not, they will devour these quick reads and ask for more!

"...Tobin astutely looks at the varying possibilities that would have led to Gatti's death. Such an approach intelligently and respectfully piques interest in a real-life mystery that has left Gatti's fans and family in need of both solace and satisfactory answers." -- Kirkus Reviews "Where I find myself lost in other gifted writers' words or stories, or simply skimming lesser writers, I find myself more aware when reading [Tobin], I find myself guessing why he made certain choices, asking how much of what I'm thinking he intended. Oftentimes I pause and answer a question he poses then decipher his reason for asking it, but when he is at his best, I find, I can't decipher why he asked a question, and I like that discovery. I like that he's gone in a direction I can't explain because I know he is an intelligent writer and a thoughtful person, tender even, who writes with authority, and so, if he's gone somewhere without leaving breadcrumbs, I know he's invited me to a place I'd not have accessed without him." --Bart Barry, 15rounds.com "What could have been a somewhat tasteless murder mystery, Tobin's purpose is welcomely, deliberately, indefinite. Instead of a Shakespearean tragedy, or yet another bloody chapter of boxing's wider legacy, in reciting and debating Gatti's death Tobin's document becomes a meditation on the human condition, the false belief in the true existence of empathy, that we arrogantly convince ourselves to understand others. 'When a family loses one of its own to suicide, a panic descends," summarises Tobin, without having definitively opined the true cause of Gatti's death, "The panic is rooted in the need to understand, to quarantine this act of destruction, to make it intelligible before the suffering borne of mystery spreads." --Jack Porter, The Sportsman "Did he commit suicide or was it an accident? These are the questions author Jimmy Tobin sets out to answer... Very much a human-interest read, it draws the reader in and leads them to other, darker possibilities from the night in question. ." -- Bookmakers , "Best Sports Books Released This Year" "The heart of the story is really not about Gatti, but, rather, about the impact his death had on those who knew and loved...Tobin, professional he is, never tips his hand to the reader, and allows for the facts and the evidence to shape the story. And as with any good mystery, this one will be debated, analyzed, and relegated to the territory of unsolved for the foreseeable future. This book is recommended for high school, public, and academic libraries." --Gavin Woltjer, President, Montana Library Association, "...Tobin astutely looks at the varying possibilities that would have led to Gatti's death. Such an approach intelligently and respectfully piques interest in a real-life mystery that has left Gatti's fans and family in need of both solace and satisfactory answers."-- Kirkus Reviews
