Road to the Galliano Club

di Carmen Amato (Autore)

Laurel & Croton, 2023

In a trio of riveting historical fiction tales, three outcasts escape the past during the height of Prohibition. From tragedy in the olive groves of southern Italy, to a dead-end coal-mining town in Pennsylvania, to the street gangs of Chicago, you'll travel with three unforgettable characters. Their final destination? The Galliano Club in upstate New York, where trouble is always on tap. Ruth Cross escapes a dead-end life in a Pennsylvania coal mining town, but scandal will chase her all the way to the tiny apartment over the Galliano Club. Luca Lombardo emigrates to America but it costs him everything. By the time he goes to work as the barman at the Galliano Club, he has nothing left to lose. Benny Rotolo rises from street thug to trusted bodyguard for Chicago's North Side Gang but when Al Capone puts a price on his head, the Galliano Club could be his chance to get even. The blue-collar Galliano Club is the mainstay of Italian immigrants in Lido, New York. After long days building America's skyscrapers, ships, and electrical grid, thirsty mill workers head there to play cards, argue over the news, and drink the bootleg beer hidden in the cellar. No one is ready for the coming storm of murder, blackmail, and revenge. Are you a fan of The Godfather, Road to Perdition, The Untouchables, or Boardwalk Empire? If you love historical fiction featuring Prohibition-era stories of Chicago gangsters, Italian mobsters, and bold bootleggers, grab this introduction to the Galliano Club series which was inspired by award-winning author Carmen Amato's grandfather who was a deputy sheriff in upstate New York during Prohibition.
