Empire of_Shadows
Salvatore "Il Lupo" Conti, the most feared and ruthless mafia boss of 1960s Sicily, built an empire of blood and power, ruling the underworld with an iron fist. But not even his cunning and violence could fend off death. Succumbing to cancer at the age of 65, Salvatore takes his final breath, expecting the darkness of oblivion—or perhaps the fires of hell—to claim him.
Instead, he awakens decades into the future, reincarnated in the body of Viktor Sokolov, a young, battered thug struggling to survive in the chaotic streets of post-Soviet Moscow. Stripped of his old identity but not his mind, memories, or instincts, Salvatore finds himself in an unfamiliar and brutal new world of corrupt officials, violent gangs, and ruthless oligarchs.
