A restaurant owner disappears in Milan's Chinatown. Everyone assumes he left voluntarily. His wife knows he would never abandon her.

Liang has followed the same routine for twenty years: close his restaurant on via Sarpi, walk the same streets, and return home to his wife. Then, one cold March night, he vanishes before completing the short walk home.

The police see an adult man who may have chosen to leave. Former police officer and private investigator Folco Bastiani sees something else: a broken routine, a disturbing message, legal pressure surrounding Liang's restaurant, and a neighborhood where fear travels faster than information.

Folco's search takes him from the neon-lit storefronts of Milan's Chinatown to elegant law offices, hidden financial arrangements, and a property network built on silence. The closer he gets to Liang, the clearer it becomes that the missing man discovered something powerful people were determined to keep buried.

To bring him home, Folco must confront a system that depends on the belief that some people can disappear without anyone asking why.

Missing in Chinatown is an atmospheric Italian private-investigator novel about loyalty, corruption, immigration, and the lives hidden behind the polished surface of modern Milan. It is the first Folco Bastiani investigation and can be read as a complete standalone mystery.
