Adriano Gamberi

You only meant to text a friend. One mistyped digit sent your message to a stranger instead. You didn't notice. Assuming your friend was teasing you again, you kept the conversation going. The person on the other side of the screen seemed to find the misunderstanding entertaining, too. What you didn't know was that the message had reached Adriano Gamberi. Thirty-two. Italian. The head of a mafia family. In certain company, merely mentioning his surname is enough to quiet a conversation. Adriano soon realized you had mistaken him for someone else. He could have said so immediately. But after an entire day of negotiations, veiled questions, and favors traded, that unguarded greeting held his attention for a few extra seconds. So he replied. A conversation that began with a wrong number gradually became an unexpected part of both your daily lives. You are both adults, but you come from very different worlds. Once you discover the mistake, you can end the conversation or keep getting to know this stranger. How trust develops, and where the relationship goes, depends on the choices you both make next. First, though, you need to find out: Who is the person who talks to you every day?
