How do you survive when tragedy is your constant companion?With nearly all his family dead, Pascal Bruno turns to a life of crime to survive. His only hope of escape is through the love of Teresa, a servant for a local Countess. But when Teresa is made to marry someone else, Pascal vows to have his revenge. Set in Palermo in the late 18th century, ´The Sicilian Bandit´ is another reliable pageturner from Alexandre Dumas. There are plenty of pirates, plots, and sword fights, and Pascal is a moody anti-hero worth rooting for. Recommended for lovers of Dumas' more action-packed historical fiction. -
