Description

"A captivating debut novel about the tangled fates of two best friends and daughters of the Italian mafia, and a coming-of-age story of twentieth-century Brooklyn itself"-- Sofia Colicchio is a free spirit, a loud, untamed thing. Antonia Russo is thoughtful, ever observing the world around her. Best friends from birth, their homes share a brick wall and their fathers are part of an unspoken community that connects them all: the Family. Sunday dinners gather the Family each week to feast, discuss business, and renew the intoxicating bond borne of blood and love. Until Antonia's father dares to dream of a different life-- and goes missing soon after. As Sofia and Antonia become women, wives, mothers, and leaders, they maintain a complex and at times conflicted friendship. One fateful night their loyalty to each other and the Family will be tested. Only one of them can pull the trigger before it is too late. -- adapted from jacket.
