The Black Hand in Sydney.

About

The Black Hand in Sydney

Explore the boarding houses, brothels, and colourful characters that established Sydney's Razorhurst district as a seeding ground for Italian criminal networks—networks that extended to North Queensland’s sugar belt, Brooklyn, New York, and Italy. Here, sex workers were trafficked, debts were enforced, and loyalties were tested, as gangsters like Guido Caletti mingled with East Village Hotel stalwart and Queen of Woolloomooloo, Tilly Devine. These streets whispered the threats of murder, extortion, and revenge, all under the suffocating code of silence that protected those who lived by the rules of The Black Hand.
