About this listen
An immigrant Sicilian family triumphs over the mafia in turn of the century New Orleans, just not in the way they'd planned.
This fictionalized tale recounts the story of the true life Giacona family, who emigrated from Sicily to New Orleans in the 1890s. They came to the US to escape the influence of the mafia, only to be confronted by the same challenges in the New World.
Pietro and Corrado, father and son, do what they must to defend their family and business from the dreaded Black Hand, as well as powerful organized crime families. They proceed the only way they know how: through bravery, guile, and tough choices. Although committed to living as "honest Italians," their choices lead them down a perilous path.
Evolved Publishing presents a fascinating glimpse of an important part of Americana, blending slices of true history with fiction in a compelling story of organized crime in New Orleans.
