THROUGH BLOOD AND FOG

Sicily, 1889. Luca Santoro believes his father was lost at sea-until he learns the truth: his father was murdered. Drawn into a secret brotherhood and sent across the Atlantic, Luca arrives on the San Francisco waterfront, where Irish gangs control the docks, Chinese tongs defend their territory, and corruption reaches from the wharves into City Hall. To survive, a fisherman's son must become a smuggler, a strategist, and eventually something far more dangerous. When the man responsible for his father's death reaches San Francisco, Luca must choose between the life he hoped to build and the vengeance that has followed him from Sicily. Inspired by author Michael Sabella's own Sicilian family history-beginning with his great-grandfather's arrival in San Francisco in 1887-Through Blood and Fog is a historical crime novel about immigration, loyalty, ambition, and the price of power.
