The First Domino

By Dennis Collins

Joe Pellerito thought he could murder his way into the mob. The son of a high powered Mafia lawyer and negotiator, he assumed that he'd be welcomed into the Family. When Joe's father died of cancer he waited anxiously for the invitation to join the ranks. But the call never came. Feeling shunned, Joe devised a plan to show his dedication and fearlessness. From a list of Detroit cops who have been problems for the syndicate Joe chose three candidates and pulled off a string of three brutal murders in less than two hours on a bright spring morning. The philosophy of the mob has moved into the new millennium and has all but abandoned confrontations with law enforcement. Joe's actions threaten to undo the progress that took two decades to build. The problem of Joe Pellerito must be addressed. With a price on his head, Joe is forced to flee and tries to hide in Italy where he attempts to gain a whole new identity. The diligence of Detroit Police detectives Otis Springfield and Albert McCoy helps them sniff out Joe's trail but the mob has its resources as well and soon the race is on to see who can get their hands on Joe first.
