Publishers Description: A novel about gangster Paul Valente and his mafia family in Australia. Luca is dead and the Neapolitan Camorra wants revenge. Janice is imprisoned in Bangkok and only one person can get her out. Radical Islamic leaders who attempt to grab political power in the suburbs can only be stopped with violence. Stealing from La Famiglia brings a terrible death. From a seedy cafe in Melbourne to the tranquil, affluent suburb of Peppermint Grove in Western Australia, the working class suburb of Coburg in Victoria, the Camorra in Naples, corrupt officials in Bangkok and the farming communities in Northern Victoria, a war of honour, greed, merciless codes and revenge is fought in the pursuit of power. Part Power without Glory and part The Godfather, this is a compelling novel about love, passion, crime, corruption and abuse of power.
