Prohibition is dead,\nthe world is at war again, and Joe’s son, Tomás, is growing up. Now the former\ncrime kingpin works as a consigliore to the Bartolo crime family, traveling\nbetween Tampa and Cuba, his wife’s homeland.\nA master who moves in and out of the black, white, and Cuban\nunderworlds, Joe effortlessly mixes with Tampa’s social elite, U.S. Naval\nintelligence, the Lansky-Luciano mob, and the mob-financed government of\nFulgencio Batista. He has everything—money, power, a beautiful mistress, and\nanonymity.\nBut success cannot protect him from the dark truth of his\npast—and ultimately, the wages of a lifetime of sin will finally be paid in full.\nDennis Lehane vividly recreates the rise of the mob during a\nworld at war, from a masterfully choreographed Ash Wednesday gun battle in the\nstreets of Ybor City to a chilling, heartbreaking climax in a Cuban sugar cane\nfield. Told with verve and skill, World Gone By is a stunning work of\nhistorical fiction from one of “the most interesting and accomplished American\nnovelists” (Washington Post).\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0063084880\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0063084880.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Lehane, Dennis\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
