Those Amazing Mafia Wives

It was in the 1950s that mafia boss, Don Amato Rizoso, determined it was time to enter the lucrative human trafficking business. Five dedicated Rizoso mafia wives stepped up to work tirelessly for one desperate purpose: to rescue innocent girls their cutthroat husbands were trafficking in for modern day sale.

While, operating in a netherworld teeming with greed and corruption, the wives officially opened business after their daring rescue of multiple sex slaves from a mafia-owned opium den. As they adjusted to their life of vigilante justice, they faced near rescue misses, they helped set-up a daring underground railroad, and they took down the notorious Cocaine Queen. Amidst betrayal, mass slaughter, forbidden love, and a son whose secret threatened his life, they learned that fighting for what they believed in was anything but easy. Nevertheless, those amazing mafia wives worked doggedly to take down a family empire built on the bodies of children – even if it meant their own lives.

Under a cloak of darkness, and within the reach of the devil’s grasp, young Peter Malone is brought up by a religious mother with a priestly plan. Blinded by the light of her spiritual salvation, Mother Mary Malone pushes the parameters of obedience at all costs, to achieve her spiritual reward. In this distorted world of fanatical worship, her seventh son of a seventh son is precariously placed in front of the fallen clergy, who are cloaked in deception.

The wake of destruction perpetrated upon the fragile flock is too much for one broken boy to handle. That innocent soul is finally released from his pain by the ultimate sacrifice and becomes a catalyst for change within the church, and in the life of Father Peter Malone.
