 It’s the roaring twenties and the world is in the grip of Prohibition!  In the gritty ganglands of Chicago, Al Capone and his Outfit have a stranglehold on the city. Sicilian-American Sal Scavuzzo takes full advantage of the underground activities, drinking at the speakeasies, gambling, and wooing the dames. But when he gets in too deep with the gangsters, Sal’s pleasurable lifestyle is threatened. Will he continue his reckless ways, or will he settle down and go the straight and narrow?  If you enjoyed The Godfather or Boardwalk Empire, you’ll love this thrilling novel of 1920s gangster life in Prohibition Chicago.
