    About this audiobook

    A sworn member of the Colombo crime family in New York City, Michael Franzese was considered the biggest moneymaker in the mob since Al Capone. At age 35, he was number eighteen on Fortune magazine's list of the fifty most wealthy and powerful Mafia bosses in America. But then he did the unthinkable. He quit the mob. Franzese met Camille Garcia, who turned his world upside down with her innocent beauty. He fell in love with her, married her, and began a new life that didn't include the Mafia. Nobody of Franzese's rank ever just walked away from the mob and lived to tell about it. But Franzese has somehow managed to avoid the grave after he turned his back on the past. But what made him leave the lavish lifestyle of the Mafia? And how has he escaped what should have been sure death after he quit the mob? Now, in one of the most fascinating books ever written about today's Mafia, Michael Franzese reveals the answers to the many mysteries surrounding his incredible life. Walk the streets with him and find out how and why he has done what no one else managed to do--and live. Journey with him through a life defined by two blood covenants... ...The first bound him to the mob. The second set him free.

      A very powerful testimony of God's love and grace. No one is beyond redemption.
    • 2/5
      The book goes from telling the bad deeds he did to him trying to redeem himself as a godly man. Read up to the first 22 chapters and end it there.
    • 5/5
      This a good read and unlike other books written by ex mobsters. The author is sincere and honest about his journey to finding God and how he submitted to the will of God. In his submission to God, he displayed his love of his wife and kids by giving it all to God to open doors for him. This read is encouraging and it shows how God can use each and everyone is.

      Loved the fact Michael read the book. I learned facts on mob life that I never knew before. Loved the story!
    • 5/5
      While i could have done without the two minute sermon at the end, it’s a small price to pay for an extremely interesting and in depth story of Michaels experience in the mafia. I loved this book

      Authentic testimony of a Made Man with proverbial wisdom for the layman and woman!
    • 5/5
      Incredible! LOVED IT! Looking forward to more titles narrated by Michael Franzese himself!
    • 4/5
      I really enjoyed this book. As a Christian, it is refreshing to see that the power of God's love can move any heart, even that of a longtime gangster.
