Merullo’s latest book, Once Night Falls, was selected as a November 2019 pick by Amazon First Reads’ editors who called the novel “Both epic and intimate in its portrayal of World War II Italy.” They continued, “Merullo expertly illuminates the war’s devastation of the country and its culture. …So immediate, it plunges the reader into this harrowing time, making the story—and the chapter of history—feel intensely personal. …The book is unflinching in its portrayal of wartime turmoil. Yet heroism and hopefulness drive these characters. Once Night Falls is a page-turning, propulsive read, and the stakes are always incredibly high. But it is the characters—and the powerful lessons they bestow — that make this is a truly unforgettable story.”
