I don't think anyone truly realized what was wrong with my family until that night. It was long, like a never ending nightmare that continued to swirl in my head and every time that I screeched at myself to wake up, I just kept living it.

Camilla, an 18 year old who is only weeks away from leaving her family and old life in New York, to her dreams at a University in Boston. That Summer seemed anything but usual for the Alinari family. As Alinari means "power," and "warriors," as her father had drilled into her since the day she could remember, their lives were about to change for the worse. Her father was struggling in the infamous italian mob scene, realizing that local police knew his name. Her mother, aging with the stress of keeping to her children and making sure she wouldn't find her husband in the newspapers was making her go mental. The lives of four individuals would become highlighted and labeled as one home, branded as mobsters and runaways, drug addicts, and dealers; to become from what they use to be to a branded home.
