About The Book

The epic conclusion to Blood for Blood, the cinematic heart-wrenching Mafia romance trilogy from number one bestselling author Catherine Doyle.

A blood war rages on the streets of Chicago. After a shocking tragedy that leaves Sophie utterly alone and vulnerable, she has nowhere to go except into the protection of an infamous Mafia family. Now she must live a dangerous double life, pretending to be a regular teenager while training as a deadly assassin in secret.

But the deceit can’t last for ever. Sophie’s heart belongs to a killer and she’s the prime target of a rival clan. Determined to seek revenge, she faces the ultimate decision: can she pay the price – can she be a Mafiosa?
