Tombolo

by Terence Anthony

Italy, 1944. As the Allies battle the S.S. and Fascist forces across the Italian countryside, African American deserters, Italian criminals and German traitors find refuge in the swamp of Tombolo. When Madison -- a black war hero trying to hide from his past -- rescues a young Italian partisan, fragile alliances within the outlaw camp are put to the test.
