Cleveland, 1959. The city bleeds, but the old ways are making a comeback.

The Irish mob has crumbled, and in the power vacuum, a brutal new order rises. At its head: Mama Mazzarelli—a grieving widow with a spine of steel and a soul steeped in Sicilian folk magic. Her vision? A Cosa Nostra with honor. No innocent blood. No wasted lives. Only justice—and vengeance.


With her come the bambinos, a crew of loyal orphans forged into soldiers by the streets and sharpened by the supernatural:

Matteo, the speed-freak boxer with fists faster than bullets.

Marco, silent and smoldering—literally.

Luca, the ghost who fades to smoke and walks through walls.

Giovanni, a clay-faced mimic and math genius

But taking Cleveland won’t be easy. Standing in Mama Mazz’s way is the ex-Marine who betrayed her family—and his five battle-hardened sons, trained killers all.

Blood will spill. Loyalties will be tested. And something ancient and dark is awakening beneath the city.

Fans of noir, mob thrillers, and dark urban fantasy will devour Malocchio, a brutal, magical showdown where family is everything—and curses never die.
