About this ebook
In 1930’s Chicago, gangsters rule the streets. You’re either with them or you’re dead.
Joey has just lost his brother, and goes to get flowers for the funeral. The florist pays the Outfit, so he’s safe to do business with. But when the Outfit wants to collect more money from this humble florist, Joey finds out that the florist is not as kind and gentle as he first seems.
