[Mario Puzo's Mafia 01] • Omertà

No one knew why Raymonde Aprile, the last great American Don, adopted Astorre Viola many years ago in Sicily; no one suspected how he had carefully trained him. While the Don's own children claimed respectable careers in America, Astorre Viola waited for his time to come. The Don Aprile is now dead, his murder one bloody act in an onslaught of ambition and deceit that involves deadly compromises made by an FBI agent, two crooked NYPD detectives, and the frightening plans of a South American mob kingpin. Amid this collision of enemies and lovers, betrayers and loyal soldiers, Astorre Viola will claim his destiny.
