Author Russell Marks Announces the Release of The Meeting, a Gripping European Thriller

Russell Marks announces the release of his debut novel, The Meeting, a suspenseful and atmospheric thriller set against the backdrop of Europe's most captivating destinations. Scheduled for publication in March 2025, the novel will be available in hardcover format.

Drawing heavily from his extensive travel throughout Europe, Marks brings authenticity and vivid detail to a story that moves seamlessly through France, Italy, and Germany. The Meeting blends international intrigue, personal relationships, and the dangerous undercurrents of global business into a fast-paced narrative that keeps readers turning pages.

The story follows a young American professional whose dream opportunity to live and work in Europe quickly unravels into something far more complex and perilous. What begins as a chance meeting evolves into a web of secrecy, deception, and betrayal, forcing characters to confront the cost of ambition and trust in a world where nothing is as it seems.

Marks was inspired to write The Meeting after hiking through the Tuscany region of Italy, where the contrast between breathtaking landscapes and hidden histories sparked the foundation of the novel's setting and tone. Extensive research into European culture, geography, and business practices further grounds the story in realism.

Written for an adult audience, The Meeting is a standalone novel that also serves as the beginning of a larger story.

Marks hopes readers finish the book eager for what comes next-and he delivers. A sequel, The Underboss, is already underway, with a planned release in Fall 2025.

At this time, no promotional events have been scheduled.
