Dill asked:

Why is this called Beneath a Scarlet Sky? Does "Scarlet Sky" have some significance I don't know about? I don't remember any mention of anything like that in the actual book. Maybe it just sounded like a cool title?

Michael Lella Great question. I thought Mark Sullivan made an early reference to being beneath a scarlet sky somewhere, but it was just in passing. The initial drafts changed names from "North Of Milan" to "Perilous" to "None Shall Sleep". I think Mr. Sullivan and Lake Union Publishing decided that "Beneath A Scarlet Sky" would suit the female market best, implying that it was not just about War, daring, and adventure but also about love.
Sullivan and Amazon know the market and how to best get the story out. And that is the goal. Mike Lella, Pino's son.
Jane " . . . even when the skies turn scarlet and threatening, I still believe that if we are lucky enough to be alive, we must give thanks . . ."
Ginger Page 8. "I am going to meet a beautiful girl today," Pino said, wagging his finger at the scarlet, threatening sky. "And we are going to fall in mad, tragic love..."
Janice At the end of the book, he quotes Pino talking about living his life and he mentions scarlet skies as a metaphor.
