Résumé
In 1926, thanks to Prohibition, it's hard to find a beer in Lido, New York. But trouble is always on tap at the Galliano Club in this riveting historical fiction thriller inspired by true events. Social hub for the Italian immigrant community, the Galliano Club serves bootleg beer and Luca Lombardo's signature sandwiches to workers from the city's copper mills. The club means everything to Luca, who arrived in Lido with nothing left to lose.
He'll do whatever it takes to keep the club afloat, even staying silent about a murder in the alley behind the building. From her second-floor window, Ruth Cross witnessed the murder, but a scandalous past keeps her quiet. Meanwhile, gangster Benny Rotolo, chased out of Chicago by Al Capone, arrives in Lido with a loaded gun and ambitions to establish his own bootlegging empire. His sights are set on transforming the Galliano Club into his exclusive speakeasy.
A collision between Luca and Benny is coming .
