Description: THE MOB ZONEWritten by Joseph DeMatteoHigh Dunes Press2020 A work of fiction about Italian American mafia life. FROM THE PUBLISHER:The Mob Zone: Three heart pounding, heartbreaking and at times heartwarming laugh out loud tales of vice, murder and deceit. A colorful array of characters and their even more colorful way of communicating bring these unconventional twists on classic organized crime schemes to life. What’s buried under the historic statue of Paul Revere . . . Jimmy Hoffa, the Great Brink’s robbery loot or the stolen art from Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner museum heist? Filled with comedy, suspense and tragedy, The Mob Zone is another dimension in the seedy, sordid, viscously violent underworld. Benny and Nicky Go for a Ride: Two South Philly based hitmen “Hit” the road to handle a quick and quit job in Boston. Benny “Big Foot” Bennato—the old hat— and Nicky “The Knife” Nunzio—the specialist—are members of the same family but belong to different crews. Along the way, the two killers reflect on the life they chose and learn things about each other they will come to regret. Driving in Silence: Fraternal twin mute assassins, Nino and Dino DePasquale, truly speak the language of “Omertà”—the oath of silence. When Providence based bookie, Carmen “The Cheese Man” Pistone sends them on a scavenger hunt type “Hunt” for the man in the black and white photograph—with a telltale bag of fresh mozzarella—the brothers set off on a non-stop cavalcade of absurdity. With help from an unforgettable quirky ensemble of degenerates, “The Silencers” methodically use their non-verbal senses to track down their eventual target. The Paul Revere Job: FBI Special Agent, Michael Bartone, goes in deep as Tommy “The Trucker” Dellaventura to infiltrate what’s left of Boston’s La Cosa Nostra. The objective—uncover clues surrounding the Mob’s involvement in New England’s biggest unsolved crimes. Packed with nonstop action, unexpected turns and plenty of politically incorrect wiseguy banter, this multi-generational saga of lies, betrayal and revenge finally reveals what really happened to the 13 works of art stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and why the statue commemorating the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere is worth its weight in cannolis. CONDITION:Softcover, in glossy wraps. 8" x 5." Contains 150 pages, no illustrations. Tightly bound, clean copy with slight edgewear to the cover. No markings, no writing, no odors.
