A Debt in Blood
Vittoria Fontana has spent two years holding her father's shop together with careful hands and fourteen unbreakable rules. When Aldo Fontana is accused of selling out the alliance that keeps Little Italy standing, she doesn't reach for grief. She reaches for her ledgers, because Vittoria has never once trusted a number she hasn't checked herself.
Marco Greco has spent his whole life writing down what everyone else forgets. The quiet brother. The one who keeps the household book and answers the telephone at midnight. When Carmine sends him to guard the man accused of destroying their family's oldest ally, Marco expects a job. He doesn't expect to fall for the daughter standing watch over her father with a stopwatch, a spine of iron, and a page of rules he has to earn one at a time.
But the deeper they dig into a hijacked shipment and a dying man's silence, the closer they come to a truth neither family is ready for: the man behind it all has been sitting at their table for twenty-two years, breaking their bread, and calling Marco figlio mio since the day he was born.
Some debts are paid in money. Some are paid in blood. And some take twenty-two years to come due.
