When a woman, born and raised inside the Mob, decides that she wants out - out of her marriage and out of the world of the Mob - she has to take desperate measures. Fleeing from her violently abusive husband, and taking with her every penny he has stashed, she uses her wits, her courage, and all the tricks she has learned as a child of the Mob, just in order to survive.
To quote just one of her pursuers, "She’s smart, she knows both worlds, is well connected, and, if cornered, she will put an ice pick in your eye.”
