Irish and Sicilian mafia clashed. Thinking it was the end, all sense of code amongst the families ended. Sicilians turned on their own but kept the children of their dead adversary. The surviving son was molded in their image and was treated as a long-lost son. Halaesa was too old to believe their lies and became a captive until she came of age.For too long, the Pannareli family terrorized Chicago's south side through brute force. Crime is up, petty thieves divert the police's attention, drugs are rampant, and small businesses are suffering. They take what they want and enforce it with the meanest, most honorless thugs who treat the streets as their playground, and their favorite toy is Halaesa.They made a mistake when they didn't finish off the last of the Irish mafia in Chicago. Brogan Cummiskey's family line is down to him. Revenge ten years in the making comes in the form of the local boogeyman - The Bodach of Beverly. Halaesa's fear of retribution from the Pannareli's has kept her small, but Brogan "The Bodach of Beverly" Cummiskey colliding into her path has given her a second option, which may jeopardize her brainwashed brother.Halaesa must choose the lesser evil and consider its cost.
