"Sal Benucci runs the best pizza parlor in Chicago. The Mob is putting the squeeze on all local businesses for more protection money, but the Mafia boss of the Cribaldi Crime Family, Silvio Arradondo, has a dirty secret from the past and Sal has the proof that may be his only protection. This rich story explores themes of legacy, loyalty, power, and moral conflict, all set against the gritty, often dangerous underworld of organized crime in Chicago. Sal finds comfort from an old, lost love and eventually seeks needed help from an old acquaintance at the very last second. He'll need every slice of it." -- Publisher.
