Saint of the Narrows Street

Boyle, William, 1978-2025
Books, Manuscripts
Gravesend, Brooklyn, 1986: Risa Franzone lives in an apartment with her bad-seed husband, Saverio, and their eight-month-old baby, Fabrizio. Risa is a loving mother, a faithful wife, a saintly neighbour - but lately, her husband's slow dive into criminality and abuse has threatened her peace. On the night her younger sister, Giulia, moves in with Risa to recover from a bad break-up, a fateful accident occurs: Risa, boiled over with anger and fear, strikes a drunk Sav with a cast-iron pan, killing him instantly. Opting to cover-up the killing, their supposedly seamless scheme begins to reveal cracks over the years that follow.
