In The Scarlet Thread, Evelyn
Anthony s twenty-ninth book, this
masterful storyteller gives her le-
gions of devotees a truly irresistible
tale of the unlikeliest of love affairs
and its heartwarming triumph over
seemingly impossible odds.
Amid the ravages of the Second World
War, Angela Drummond, a British
nurse, and Steven Falconi, an American
soldier and scion of a powerful Mafia
family, meet in a military hospital in
Sicily and fall deeply in love. Before
long, everyone knows about their affair,
Angela becomes pregnant, and Steven
arranges for their secret marriage in a
tiny village church. When the hospital
base is bombed, Steven doesn t find his
bride s name on the list of survivors.
Grief stricken, he returns to America.
But Angela is not dead. After learning
about Steven s Mafia background, she
reveals her pregnancy to her supervisor,
is discharged from the nursing service,
and returns to England. Steven and
Angela live separate lives--she raises
their son Charlie, and he reluctantly
joins the family business and makes a
loveless marriage with Clara Fabrizzi,
daughter of another powerful Mafia
clan--but neither can forget their war-
time love.
