Ripe Tomatoes and Army Fatigues: Based on a True Story - Paperback

Was the three minute blitz which kidnapped former Prime Minister of Italy Aldo Moro and left his six body-guards dead on the pavement, the work of a bunch of armed drop-outs known as the Red Brigades or was it pivoted by the U.S. to prevent the Communists from coming to power?

An enigma which torments Tessa, a U.S. Army employee in Vicenza who discovers U.S. intrigue. But when Army General James Lee Dozier is kidnapped and the Red Brigades make her their unwilling accomplice, she realizes the U.S. machination in Italian politics is not what it seems.

An insight into the lives of U.S. Army personnel and their families serving in Italy during the period of terrorism known as the "Years of Lead."
