Son of the Mob introduces Vince Luca, a seemingly ordinary high school student whose biggest challenge isn't homework, but his father's profession as a powerful mob boss. This humorous and fast-paced novel follows Vince as he tries to lead a normal life, navigate friendships, and pursue a serious romance. The ultimate complication arises when he falls for a girl whose father is the very FBI agent determined to bring down Vince's family. It's a story about identity, family loyalty, and finding your own path amidst extraordinary circumstances, perfect for middle and high school readers.
Vince Luca is just like any other high school guy. His best friend, Alex, is trying to score vicariously through him; his brother is a giant pain; and his father keeps bugging him to get motivated. There is just one thing that really sets him apart for other kids: his father happens to be the head of a powerful crime organization. Needless to say, while Vince's family's connections can be handy for certain things-like when teachers are afraid to give him a bad grade as they can put a serious crimp in his dating life. How is he supposed to explain to a girl what his father does for a living? But when Vince finally meets one who seems to be worth the trouble, her family turns out to be the biggest problem of all. Because her father is an FBI agent-the one who wants to put his father away for good.
