YA
Translated by Anthea Bell.
Seventeen-year-old New Yorker Rosa moves to Sicily to start over. When she falls for the heir of a rival Mob family, she learns that the Mafia is hiding stranger and deadlier secrets than just organized crime. In this supernatural romance, Rosa's dark and damaged voice aptly navigates the troubled waters of love and family where everyone has a secret agenda.
