At forty, Dante Vetrano has a wife, two children, and a refrigeration company that keeps Bay Area restaurants running. He also leads an eleven-man crime family. The people who know him best have learned to ask only certain questions. Then a contractor dies at Dante's cold-storage project in Vallejo. One of his captains has promised the same stake to two investors. Money has vanished into another business. A Sacramento enforcer wants what he believes he bought, and federal investigators are beginning to connect the names on the invoices. Dante can settle a debt. He can make a room go quiet. But he cannot bring back the dead, make his crew tell the truth, or keep his wife from asking where their life came from. Across North Beach, Oakland, Vallejo, and Sacramento, a business dispute becomes a fight for control. Old favors become liabilities. Men who once shared a table begin choosing sides. Don of the Bay is a gritty modern mob drama of family, money, and divided loyalties, told with dark humor, sharp dialogue, and violence that follows people home.
