Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The year is 1934. After the incident at the Mist Wall, the Martillo Family's youngest capo finds himself on his way to prison to protect the one he loves. The rest are there for their own reasons—the homicidal maniac wants to taste the thrill of killing an immortal, the thief simply got himself caught, the hitman is there on a mission for Nebula, and the alchemist was incarcerated years ago.

As the FBI attempts to get to the bottom of Huey’s machinations, another ruckus is about to erupt across the San Francisco Bay—deep in the heart of Alcatraz.

Baccano!, Vol. 8 (light novel) by Katsumi Enami and Ryohgo Narita invites readers into a world of intrigue and suspense.
