The loot is meager but the indignation is great: without knowing it, Nitto Santapaola's mother has been robbed, the rising star of the new Cosa Nostra in Catania. Children disappear into thin air. No one ever reported the children missing.. In a poetic attempt to snatch them from the clutches of oblivion, here is his story.
