It's the Roaring '20s. America wants silk at any price.... Japan has it...But when Chicago mobsters hijack a multi-million-dollar "Silk Train" on its way to New York, Japanese silk merchant Aiko Sato loses her family company's fortune. With the help of family and friends, including mobster-king Al Capone, she gets the chance of a lifetime to turn tragedy into triumph.Will she take it?SILK is a coming-of-age story of a shy young girl growing into a take-no-prisoners woman, swept up into action-adventure, surrounded by historic characters alive and kicking in the booze-and-broads, Charleston age, when silk was silk, blood was blood, and love showed up in the damnedest places.
