A peek into the
Underground Railroad and the tumultuous period before the American Civil War.
In 1833 Philadelphia,
the northern states of America were changing, and not everyone was keen on
altering the status quo. Black slaves were being freed, and new slaves were no
longer allowed.
But the southern states
didn't always agree. Natives were being thrown out of their homes for living
too close to gold, and escaped black slaves were being hunted down. Jesse
Eastman controls the affluent Eastman Empire and frees a former slave, his
half-sister Georgina. But some family members don't like it.
When an estranged
brother gets the idea to let a ruthless gang of property buyers initiate a
takeover, all hell breaks loose.
1833 Brothers & Sisters will pull you into an old western-style family saga, filled with greed, marital love, family conflict, and smoking gun shootouts

In Rome, in the middle of a cold winter in the Eighties, preparations for Christmas are in full swing. Near the Vatican City, in a workshop of sacred objects and clothes, old Rinaldo's day begins, as always, among the tourists crowding the streets and the smell of freshly baked pizza. At the same time, Commissioner Rosco says goodbye to the agents of his team, before the imminent transfer to the Rieti police station: the punishment for a mistake made during his last case. A forced confinement that will become the opportunity to show off his intuition and investigate a crime committed thirty years earlier. The two apparently unrelated situations will intertwine in a crescendo of incredible events, after the strange death of old Rinaldo, while a creepy voice follows the entire unfolding of the narration. With her original and clear style, here imbued with faith and sacredness, Daniela Alibrandi offers the reader a multidimensional thriller full of twists, centered on the eternal struggle between Good and Evil.
