Synopsis

A hundred years ago the Rosa Nera, the ruthless Monfradini Mafia family in Sicily, was spreading like a plague. They coaxed every Mafioso throughout Italy to join their powerful Family. Those who would not join received a black rose, which was quickly followed by a violent death. The rest of the Families, knowing that to do nothing meant certain death, banded together and swooped down on the Monfradini Family. They were led by Angelo Procotchi, who gave orders to kill everyone, including women and children, so that there could be no retaliation. Fear again strikes the modern day Mafia Families. Descendents of Angelo Procotchi receive black roses sent by the Black Rose herself, a descendent of the only Monfradini to secretly escape the massacre. This beautiful woman, who calls herself the Black Rose, quickly becomes a major force on the East Coast, employing the same strategy as her great grandfather. John Romano fights to keep the Family members from the certain death the Black Rose has promised. This seems to be an insurmountable task as the Black Rose proves to be a very difficult adversary because of her cunning and her breathtaking beauty. She uses all of her skills to bring the very lonely John Romano under her spell.
