Summary

"For Angela, the world of organized crime provides an exciting and sexy alternative to the life she's known. Dreaming of glamorous presents and nearly unimaginable power, Angela marries Saro, placing her in the center of a life of stolen goods, and questionable moral codes. Fascinated by risk, Angela has become the front woman in a shoe shop which is used as cover for her husband's growing drug business"--Container
