New York, 1987. Five years ago, Elena Maro, the Rizzo crime family’s top medical researcher, was framed for treason and exiled while pregnant. Everyone assumed she was dead.
Now her 7-year-old son Leo, a boy with a photographic memory, shows up at the Rizzo family’s Brooklyn headquarters unannounced. Armed with his mother’s silver family ring and half the formula for a cure for the family’s genetic disease, he comes with a deal: clear his mother’s name, and he’ll deliver the other half.
But as old lies resurface and a ruthless family uncle will stop at nothing to seize power, the boy’s visit sets off a chain of betrayal, violence, and a reckoning no one saw coming.
