He has been steeped in Nonora's Italian and family lore; recalling her nostalgic stories on this long road trip from Galveston, Texas through Mexico, gives him the strength and wisdom to continue on despite the obstacles. How far does the influence of this sweet little grandmother in Galveston go with Latin American officials, sea captains and the Sardinian mafia?
