In a world of lies, only the truth can set her free. But in the mafia, the truth can get you killed.
Gianina Gagliardi thought she was the cherished daughter of the powerful Gagliardi mafia family, but a dark and twisted revelation tears her world apart. Kidnapped as a baby and forced to live a lie, Gianina is now hunted by those she once called family. As treacherous secrets spill into the open, she must navigate a maze of deceit, betrayal, and forbidden love. Bound by blood but gripped by love, can Gianina reclaim her true identity before she’s silenced forever?
***
Gianina Gagliardi’s life has been a carefully constructed lie. Raised as the daughter of the Gagliardi mafia family, she’s been protected by their power and feared by their enemies. But her world shatters when her brother, Ben, reveals a harrowing secret: Gianina is not a Gagliardi by blood. She is the last surviving member of the Irish MacNada dynasty, stolen as a baby to fill the void left by the real Gianina’s untimely death.
Caught in a lethal game of cat and mouse, Gianina must come to terms with her true identity while evading the murderous intentions of her so-called brother Ben, who will stop at nothing to claim the throne. Along the way, she uncovers untold conspiracies and must rely on unlikely allies, including the enigmatic Flynn, whose love for her complicates an already perilous journey.
From the mafia-infested streets to the hallowed fields of the macabre, Gianina’s desperate quest for the truth takes her to the dark corners of human nature. As danger encircles her, only one question remains: will Gianina reclaim her true self and heal an ancient family rift, or will she perish under the weight of her inherited sins?
Redeeming Darkness: Quest of God is a pulse-pounding tale of identity, betrayal, and redemption. Fans of gritty crime thrillers and dark romance will be gripped by this unforgettable saga, where every revelation brings Gianina one step closer to the ultimate reckoning.
From The Author
First and foremost, thank you for reading my work.
When you spend your hard-earned money to purchase my book(s), it’s a humbling experience. I feel a deep responsibility to give you the best books possible, not only in terms of plot, characters and narrative, but also proper word usage and grammar. This does not and should not imply perfection on my part. Far from it. However, whatever errors may creep into the work are regretted by the author, who asks forgiveness in advance.
My one and only intention for this and my other books is to entertain the reader. Perhaps to also inform, especially in my non-fiction, but information is only useful when delivered in such a way that it’s remembered.
Readers are special people. I appreciate you all because I’m one of you. Books are my life, as my overflowing bookshelves will attest. Everything I have done in my life has led to this moment. From majoring in Creative Writing to absorbing military history over the last 50+ years, I have devoted my life to this book and all those yet to come.
I pray you feel the effort was worthwhile.
