Armando Cavallaro is walking the streets of LA, trying to leave his life of crime behind in prison. But when his old foe Ricardo rolls up in his sleek Escalade, it's clear he still controls the neighborhood. Ricardo's eyes glint with greed as he sizes Armando up, indulging in petty insults to provoke him. Though he keeps his cool, the sight of Ricardo reopens old wounds from the night he was betrayed. 

Beneath Ricardo's polished veneer, there is no code of honor - only self-interest. He's climbed to the top of the drug trade through cunning and threats. Armando knows this man is capable of anything to maintain his power. As tensions rise between the two, long-buried secrets threaten to boil over. Armando will have to outwit his ruthless opponent to finally break free from the past, even if it means challenging the untouchable kingpin on his own turf.All Rights Reserved

Shadows of deceit by upbeatguy23

In the gritty underbelly of a sprawling, neon-lit metropolis, a complex web of power, crime, and intrigue weaves its way through the city's heart. This is a mafia story, a tale of organized crime that unfolds in the shadows, where loyalty is as deadly as betrayal, and power is the ultimate currency. At the center of this seedy underworld is a charismatic and enigmatic mob boss, a figure whose influence extends far beyond the boundaries of legality. This mafia don is a master of manipulation, shrouded in an aura of charm that belies a ruthless and cunning mind. His empire stretches from illicit gambling dens to the drug trade, from extortion rackets to underground fight clubs. The city itself becomes a character in the story, its alleys and backstreets concealing secrets, and its towering skyscrapers casting long shadows over the criminal enterprises that flourish within. The juxtaposition of opulence and decay is striking, as glamorous penthouses overlook squalid tenements, and the echoes of power are heard amid the sirens and gunshots. The story's protagonists are a motley crew of characters, each with their own moral compass and motivations. A disillusioned detective, haunted by the memory of a loved one lost to the mafia's clutches, is determined to bring down the boss and dismantle the syndicate. Alongside him, a conflicted lawyer finds herself torn between her duty to uphold the law and her loyalty to a childhood friend entangled in the mafia's web. As the plot unfolds, alliances are forged and broken, betrayals and vendettas fuel the narrative, and the line between right and wrong blurs into shades of gray. Family ties, whether by blood or loyalty, play a pivotal role, as characters grapple with the choices they've made and the consequences that come with it.
