Lu sangu lava lu sangu. This Sicilian proverb has the symmetry and cadence of poetry, but its sentiment of unforgiving vengeance has cost hundreds of people their lives. This gripping family saga doubles as a detective story. Frank Viviano, at-large foreign correspondent for the San Francisco Chronicle, moves from stories about Tiananmen Square to the tale of one of his direct ancestors, a legendary highwayman who was killed in 1876 by one of the founders of the Mafia. When Viviano returns to Sicily to unravel the century-old crime, he discovers that he is part of its resolution. Unforgettable and artful.
