Publisher's Synopsis
After proving himself in L.A., Gabriel Patera solidifies his position as one of America's largest crime lords. In his rise to power, Gabriel finds himself in New York. There, he meets his Uncle Pete, the boss of the Patera family and longtime Capo in the Gambino crime family. His uncle runs everything from gambling to illegal boxing to prostitution to high jacking ship yards and trucks for their cargo. While in New York, Gabriel finds out who his father's killers are and finds himself on a mission of revenge.
During all of this, Gabriel is caught between two lovers-Susan and Sabrina. Gabriel also suffers the loss of family and friends, one by his own hand. Things only get worse from there. A war with the A.F.O. begins after an attack at a night club results in the deaths of two close friends, bringing new members to the crew and new allies such as the Russian Mafia, the Hells Angels, the London mob, and a dangerous woman known as "The Black Widow", and the Colombian Godmother-Cruzelda Blanco. War with the A.F.O. means losing the tunnel into Mexico and the large supply of drugs, unless Gabriel decides to join forces with the deadliest enemy, the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, El Chapo. Gabriel must also deal with dirty cops, politicians, and lawyers. He tries dodging the FBI and an attack on his own turf-the very neighborhood he grew up in and now controls.
In a life of riches, women, celebrities, trips around the world, diamonds and gold, Gabriel realizes he's not untouchable. Armed with high powered weapons, he waits to pay the price for success-blood, either his or from his closest people.
