More about the book
The 'Ndrangheta, a powerful Calabrian mafia founded 140 years ago, operates a $100 billion global empire hidden in plain sight. Despite its pervasive influence in everyday life—from buildings to politics—few are aware of its existence. The organization enforces a strict code of silence and is characterized by violent misogyny, where young girls are married off to strengthen clan ties, and women who resist face brutal consequences to maintain family honor.
