In the dog-eat-dog world of Palermo, Sicily, the police and Mafia maintain a fragile peace: a carefully managed balance between corruption and justice. But when a mysterious third force enters the fray, the city erupts into all-out street warfare.
The new band of masked vigilantes is attacking customers at sleazy nightclubs and brothels, undermining the power of the Mafia dons who control them. Inspector Carlo Carpanini and chief Mafioso Salim Mandretta both want answers—but where to begin? After a particularly deadly raid on one of Mandretta’s clubs, the shocking truth emerges: the gang leader is Adelina Cervi, a disaffected former police officer. Her so-called Stiletto Sisters are out for revenge against the Mafia crooks who’ve used and abused them.
As the violence continues, Carpanini and Mandretta find themselves in a desperate race to restore their own brand of order. But which of them will intercept the vigilantes first?
Stiletto Sisters is the fifth instalment in Roger Granelli’s gripping Palermo series.
