"The magnificent Anika Scott has written a lush and beautifully rendered novel that will keep you turning pages long into the night. Rosa Mancuso is a headliner at the Chicago World's Fair in 1933. Her tangled past in Sicily unravels as she seeks revenge for the murder of her family at the hands of Paolo Amanta, a renowned Fascist pilot for Mussolini. Mystery, intrigue, secrets and a vendetta fuel this story, which is ultimately about the meaning of family and the power of love.
