MANGATA: A Sequel to Consigliere

"There's still one thing I'm a little...concerned about," Floren picked the lint off of his dirty Armani jacket sleeve.
"And what's that? You think Martolli's gonna sic his men on the newspaper company?"
"No, Val," Floren held his cousin's dark eyes. "I think Martolli's gonna sic his men on you."

It's been almost a month since Valentino Arlotti narrowly escaped the clutches of a neighboring crime family's most feared consigliere- Sebastiano Martolli. Now, with an escape trip to Europe lined up before him and his Mafioso cousins on the hunt to end Sebastiano's life, Val is certain he can finally relax.
However, much to Val's surprise and fear, disaster strikes again when a close family member of Val's is attacked by Martolli's gang and rendered into critical condition, initiating a cat-and-mouse game between Val and his enemies that stretches from a small Massachusetts town to the gaudy streets of Milan. As Val battles his opponents in hopes of abandoning his gruesome past forever, he will find himself faced with a matter of the future he never imagined encountering.
