Description
The summer of 1943 brings with it a pivotal moment in the war against Nazi Germany. As the Allies prepare to invade Sicily, the fate of the island hangs in the balance. The cost of liberation will be high, but one group holds the key to turning the tide: the Mafia. With Hitler's grip on power tightening, an unlikely figure emerges as a potential game-changer. Someone with intimate knowledge of Mafia ways and the ability to command loyalty is desperately needed. But can this individual be trusted to make the difficult choices required to dent Hitler's evil pride? The outcome is far from certain, and the stakes are high. This gripping suspense thriller takes you to the heart of the Mediterranean war effort, where the lines between loyalty, power, and survival are constantly blurred.
