ROSES UNDER GUNFIRE

New York, 1950s—the domain of the Moretti crime family. Fresh out of prison, Chloe is handpicked by Nicolo, the family’s underboss; she bears a striking resemblance to the first love of his older brother, Julian—a woman from seven years past. Nicolo tasks her with infiltrating Julian’s inner circle to sabotage his engagement and gather intelligence. Yet, Chloe has a hidden agenda: to uncover the truth behind her father’s brutal death three years earlier. Amidst a high-stakes power struggle between brothers, violent gang warfare, and the perils of living undercover, she evolves from a mere pawn into a master strategist. Ultimately, she takes matters into her own hands—executing the man who killed her father and rising from a convict to a formidable mafia queen.
