In a volume that falls somewhere between storytelling and information, this graphic novel presents four tales, four intimate glimpses into the daily life of the mafia: its dynamics and its actions, and the daily lives of those who fight against it.There is a story of those who see the mafia every day and live with it right in their neighborhoods and where bosses recruit young boys daily; there is the story of the anti-mafia investigators who fight the mafia on the front lines; there is the story of the capture of a boss from his reinforced concrete bunker; and finally, there is an overview of people like Antonino Caponnetto, who never stopped fighting and who have since become heroic symbols of the battle against the mafia.
