In gratitude for saving their family, the Wallis family gifts Filippo Cudoni fifteen hundred acres of land near Greensburg. Hidden in a cave on the mountain, Cudoni discovers a fortune in gold-more than he could have ever imagined. With newfound wealth, he brings his family from Italy to America. But his happiness is short-lived. The Catholic bishop of Manhattan conspires with the Camorra to steal the gold, and in their ruthless plot, they kill his wife.
Though Cudoni knows his wife is forever gone, he learns the identities of her murderers and vows to hunt them down. But the Camorra isn’t finished-they want the gold and will stop at nothing to get it. Meanwhile, the Cosa Nostra and the Ndrangheta, from back in Italy, also have their sights set on him.
Torn between the desire for vengeance and the weight of the Cudoni Creed, Filippo must decide: will he avenge his wife’s death or die trying?
Circa l’autore
Born in 1945 in Calabria, Italy, I moved to Australia in 1950 with my family, escaping a war-torn Italy. Educated in Atherton, Queensland, I built my life and business in North Queensland, where I still reside. My love for the farmlands where I grew up is strong, but I never forgot my roots, returning to Italy often. My interest in family history led me to the USA to research my grandfather’s life in Pittsburgh, where he migrated in 1899. I began writing in 1996, inspired by my family’s rich history and my grandfather’s adventures.
