Not only have I managed to survive a century, but I've also seen in a new millennium.

He eventually made a deal with Maranzano, then had Masseria killed. Five months later, Luciano had Maranzano killed as well, after which he established The Commission to regulate the American mob, and avert similar bloodshed. Anastasia was trouble from early on. He arrived in the US in 1919 as an illegal immigrant, and went to work on New York’s waterfront. In 1921, he was convicted of murdering a longshoreman and sentenced to death. Anastasia was awaiting execution in Sing Sing prison, when his sentence was thrown out on a technicality, and he was granted a retrial. When the retrial came around in 1922, all the witnesses from the first trial had vanished, and Anastasia walked free. The following year, he was convicted on a firearms charge, and sentenced to two years. In 1928, he was again tried for murder, but walked after all the prosecution’s witnesses disappeared or changed their mind about testifying. He walked from additional murder raps, for the same reasons, in 1932 and 1933. Let me shortly explain my disappointment. To tell two story lines concomitantly is not always easily well done. Anahita and Donald story seemed solid, although I could not like Donald and Anahita’s behavior were not always easy to understand. Rebecca and Ari’s story, on the other hand, was weaker and less developed; the characters flatter. The power of a dual time-line novel depends on the past and the present being equally believable. That did not fully happen with Midnight Rose. A pity, the story had potential. However, I kept reading because of the strength of Anahita story, wanting to learn how her life story ultimately ended.
