I am an author of the novel "Sicilian Sisters: Women in La Famiglia", by Marianna, ISBN No. 0-595-28993-2.

This book reminds people that greatness is not something you are entitled to - it's earned. You absorb the material in the novel that deals with the passage of time. The story traces the family's disappointments, challenges, and love. In the 15th century Spanish Pirates are marooned on a small Sicilian Island escaping the wrath of the British Navy. They blend in with the locals and marry five Sicilian sisters who deceptively use and abuse their secrets of power and wealth on land as they had done on the seas. Was that the beginning of the Mafia? The book tells what happens to people over a lifetime and how generations leave an imprint on the next one. Warmly, Marion Towers
