Omerta (Godfather, Book 3)

Omerta by Mario Puzo is the final novel in his Mafia trilogy, a suspenseful story of family loyalty, organized crime, power, and the code of silence that binds them together. Don Raymonde Aprile has carefully stepped away from the Mafia, ensuring that his children have respectable careers far removed from his criminal past. But when rival forces see his retirement as an opportunity, the Aprile family is pulled into one final struggle. At the centre is Astorre Viola, Don Aprile’s adopted Sicilian nephew, an unlikely but capable protector whose loyalty becomes crucial. Meanwhile, FBI agent Kurt Cilke is determined to dismantle organized crime by breaking the tradition of omerta—the vow of silence that has protected Mafia families for generations. Darkly humorous and filled with larger-than-life characters, Omerta is a fitting finale from the author of The Godfather. Hardcover, Very Good
