Synopsis
Drama about family, loyalty, love and revenge based on the novel by Lynda La Plante. The world of Don Roberto and Graziella Luciano is turned upside down when their favorite son Michael is murdered. Michael's secret girlfriend Sophia is pregnant with his child, unbeknownst to the family. After she gives birth to a son, she gives him up. Many years later, after Sophia has married Michael's brother Constantino, her lost son Luka resurfaces. Luka befriends Giorgio, the invalid son of Peter Carolla, who Don Roberto Luciano believes murdered Michael. On his deathbed, Giorgio asks Carolla to adopt and care for Luka. Later, Don Roberto Luciano and his sons are killed. The widows band together to avenge the deaths of their husbands, but Sophia discovers that Luka was responsible for the massacre of the men.
