In 1903 St. Paul, the river flats below the High Bridge are called Little Italy, and Swede Hollow is a ravine of shacks, footbridges, smoke, creek water, and rail noise. When Swedish laborer Oskar Lindstrom is killed in a suspicious yard accident, rumor names Raffaele Tomei, an Italian freight worker, as the man whose signal sent the cars moving. Raffaele's younger brother Matteo knows the story is wrong. Oskar's daughter Julia knows sorry is what men say when they want the dead to stay quiet. Their secret love begins in grief, but the truth they uncover threatens families, wages, churches, and the railroad that profits from keeping immigrants divided. A literary historical tragedy about love, labor, witness, and the names a city tries to bury.
