Follow on Google News | Clarissa "Cici" McNair Unveils Riveting True Adventure "Prosecco Is the Answer":By: McNair Writes This gripping memoir chronicles McNair's audacious journey from New York City detective to renovating a derelict Tunisian nightclub in Palermo's labyrinthine Arab Quarter—a venture that pits her against Mafia extortion and a cast of characters as vibrant as Sicily itself. About the Book When McNair trades Manhattan's skyline for Palermo's sun-drenched chaos, she ships 73 crates of her life—42 boxes of books, paintings, a Venetian chandelier—to a crumbling vicolo teeming with secrets. Amidst drug deals at her doorstep and a 1,000-year-old church storing stolen goods, she battles "Trump of the Alley," a Mafia boss who threatens to gouge out her eyes with his car key. With humor and grit, she navigates a world of napping laborers, a charming Anglican vicar, and a detective named Marlon Brando. The tale crescendos with a birthday bash for Oscar Wilde, proving that prosecco—and sheer tenacity—trump fear.
