The final battle between America's last generation of Sicilian mafioso and the world's richest and most ruthless Asian drug lords. The prize: the ten billion-dollar heroin market. Caught in the middle is Johnny Di Pietro, a small time wise guy who embarks on a journey that will take him from the streets of Brooklyn and Chinatown to the back rooms of Italy and the Orient and into the heart of evil, where he will be forced to make the ultimate choice between betraying the woman he loves and saving his own soul.
