AUTHOR'S NOTE

La Sapienza. His family. His legacy. Everything Ruggero had ever known. And the Don's seat finally within reach. Until the night Don Alessandro was supposed to announce his impending resignation, shots are fired in the crowd.

After her father is shot at an event held by La Sapienza, five years after leaving Rosaria III, Valeria Balzano is thrown face first into the life she tried so long to avoid. Her brother blames La Sapienza, but she isn't quite convinced.

Together, Ruggero and Valeria set out on the task to find out who killed her father and who tried to kill Don Alessandro. But as webs of intrigue form themselves, and secrets are uncovered... who do you trust when your enemy lies in the shadows?
