Antonio Zamberletti

Antonio Zamberletti (born December 6, 1963, in Varese) has a background as an operational agent of the State Police and as a consultant in the field of corporate and personal security. In 2004 he published his first novel, I morti non pagano, which was named among the semifinalists for the Premio Scerbanenco for the best Italian crime novel of the year, a distinction shared by his next book, I duri non pagano. In 2013 he began to combine his work as a novelist with that of a comics scriptwriter, debuting in the pages of Speciale Zagor with L'uomo di Maverick. Since then he has remained chiefly tied to the titles of the Spirit with the Hatchet, while also venturing onto the pages of Tex, Dampyr, and Nathan Never.
