Book Description
Angelo’s business in Newark is being squeezed by a local mob, the Paneladros. His own indiscretions do not help. His wife’s religious confession conducted in a priest’s own private residence further add to his troubles. The constant draining from Angelo’s cash registers drives him to despair. He thinks of alternative means of riches lying across the Atlantic away from the prying eyes of the local hoodlums. Based on hot intelligence hacked out of Rome and supplied by Giacomo, he sets on an action plan to acquire ownership of a London Car Dealership. By deceit, and force if need be. He assigns his four star general and faithful henchman - Johnny ‘4 Fingers’ Bristow - to carry out the complex task. Using a French high-fashion model and a brand new car, Angelo lures this old retired but slowly fading English playboy gentleman now living in Modena and driving a Maserati. The predator: Jaqueline du Bois. The prey: Frank Costanzo. The car: a Bugatti. Most of this drama takes place in Italy ... where else could one exploit the depths of culture, immerse oneself in colourful characters, and feel a part in tough and romantic one-on-one conversations that would keep you captivated, entertained, and at times laughing heartily.
