Publisher Description

Lake Tahoe, 1973: Michael Satariano, who as a young man fought the Capone mob in Chicago, has reached a comfortable middle age, with a loving wife at home, a talented teenage daughter in high school, and a son earning medals in Vietnam. Now running a casino for the mob, Michael thinks he’s put his killing days behind him. After all, he’s made a respectable life for himself and his family and plenty of money for the boys back in Chicago. So when godfather Sam Giancana orders him to hit a notoriously violent gangster, Michael refuses. But when the hit goes down anyway, Michael is framed for murder. Now, to save his family, he must turn state’s witness under the fledgling Witness Protection Program.

"A great conclusion to the series of books focusing on Michael O'Sullivan. Highly recommended. I'd love to see a movie sequel of Road to Perdition of this book or Road to Purgatory. "
