Twenty-one-year-old Joey Vitalli has one job: provide backup for a mob hit team. A week ago, Joey was soft—anxious, hesitant, the family disappointment. Then his uncle Salvatore—the family boss—handed him a gun and sent him along on a hit. Joey’s role? Stay in the car. Watch. Learn. Don’t interfere. The target: ‘Cadillac’ Tony DeVille, a rival enforcer sent to kill a family associate. But Joey gets involved and shoots the wrong man. The victim? Dino Marmarella—son of Louie Marmarella, boss of New York’s most ruthless crime family.

One bullet. One mistake. And suddenly, the Vitallis and Marmarellas are at war. While Salvatore scrambles to contain the damage, the Marmarellas retaliate with brutal efficiency. Innocent people become collateral damage. Trusted allies reveal hidden agendas. And Joey must confront not only his crippling anxiety, but the question of whether he has what it takes to survive in his family’s world. As the body count rises and loyalties are tested, Joey faces an impossible choice: remain the scared boy he’s always been or become the man his family needs him to be. Some mistakes can’t be undone. Some debts can only be paid in blood. Settle back and listen—the family is waiting.

BLOOD MONEY is the explosive first novel in The Vitalli Crime Family thriller series—where family loyalty, betrayal, and revenge collide in the dark heart of New York’s underworld. Perfect for fans of Mario Puzo's THE GODFATHER, Dennis Lehane's crime novels, and anyone who loved THE SOPRANOS. You'll find the Vitalli Crime Family Series compulsively addictive.
