Features: This is the final work of Mario Puzo, the renowned American best-selling author and creator of The Godfather, which immediately climbed to the second spot on the bestseller list upon publication. The Italian mafia boss, Rino, entrusts his legacy in his final moments. His young son, Astar, follows Rino's protégé, Aprile, to New York. Aprile retires from the mafia, but the other two mafia factions hire killers to eliminate him, forcing his children to sell his bank and use it for money laundering. Astar appears weak on the surface but possesses his father's aggressive nature deep down. At a critical moment, he steps up, using the "love trap" and "divide and conquer" tactics to silently punish the killers and uncover the mastermind behind the scenes. FBI Agent Silke eliminates most of the mafia's power in New York but, in his pursuit of eliminating the remnants, he pretends to cooperate with them, accepting bribes, only to be shot dead by the female police officer Aspinera, who was actually in cahoots with the mafia. This book reveals the final secrets of the mafia to the readers!
