About
In pre-Katrina New Orleans, a detective spars with a mafia hitman to find the governor's daughter in "the best Mafia novel since The Godfather" (Booklist, starred review).
When Catherine Ducane disappears in New Orleans, the cops react fast-she is the Governor's daughter, after all. But the case quickly grows very strange. Her bodyguard turns up horribly mutilated, and when the kidnapper calls, he doesn't want money: he wants time alone with a minor government functionary. By the time the pieces fall into place, it's already too late . . .
A Quiet Vendetta is both the epic story of one mobster's life-following him from Cuba to Chicago-and a powerful thriller of rage, love, and loss.
