About This Book
Leverage is a character-driven, action-packed thriller peppered with the kind of adult language, realistic violence, and black humor that makes Mob stories so compelling ? and, yes, so much fun. Onetime Mob enforcer Frank Via rose through the ranks to become the Chicago Outfit's top lawyer. But when he lost his law license for jury tampering, the Mob no longer wanted him. Now he's scraping by as a private dick and trying to get his life together. So far, it isn't going well. So when Tony Brassi, Via's former capo, summons him to find Brassi's estranged stepdaughter, Annette, who has disappeared with the Mob's books, Via knows it just means more trouble. But when he declines, Brassi makes him an offer he can't refuse: "You either find my kid, or lose your own." Via is soon on a collision course with enemies old and new, and it's just like the old days ? kill or be killed. Lucky for Via, he hasn't forgotten his old skills.
