An Albanian's word of honor, their BESA, is the pride that has made
their clans fearless fighters for centuries. In the streets of the
Bronx, New York their code has made the "sons of the eagle" a
community that has become a powerhouse over the last forty years.
Kirkus Reviews..."An engrossing, solidly entertaining
organized-crime story with a few twists." When one of their own is
believed to have been killed by an Italian American with ties to a
weakened New York Mafia family nothing will prevent the Albanians
from taking back blood...a gjakmarrja is called for. The result is
a head-on collision with two cultures that place blood vengeance
above all forms of justice.
A selection of prose poetry written from 1968-2011 by the author of
FISH FARM, Louis Romano, with original art throughout the book by
the young and exciting artist Alexa Guariglia.
Sicilian BLOODLINES run thick . . . Gino Ranno and the Miceli
family share a friendship that has lasted generations, from the
mountains of western Sicily in 1890 to today's New York landscape
of the Hamptons and East Harlem. Lucho Gonzales, a drug dealer from
Colombia with a penchant for sex and murder, has no friends-only
the wild companionship of a few psychotic men who dare to do his
dirty work, and a family too scared of his temper to do anything
else. When Gino and his on-again, off-again girlfriend Lisa cross
paths with Lucho, they unwittingly upset the balance of crime. The
result: kidnapping, rape, and murder. The Colombians may be
dangerous, but when it comes to family, the New York mob draws a
line in the sand. Winner takes all.
