Summary
Vietnam vet Dominick Candiotti has been long estranged from his family: his late parents were close to the ruling mob clan in Youngstown, his sister was a bad-tempered, dissatisfied nag, and his middle brother was a corruptible police lieutenant. But in 1985, their oldest brother Richard Candiotti - beloved by every Italian Catholic in Youngstown as "Father Candy" - dies, and Dominick returns home for the funeral. Greatly disturbed by Richard's death, which has been ruled a suicide, Dominick sets out to find the truth, revealing secrets and coming face-to-face with brutality and violence. Explicit strong language, explicit descriptions of violence and explicit descriptions of sex. c2011
