This is a story that portrays approximately two decades of the life of an aggressive, determined and clever young man named Federico (Freddy) Rufino. The setting begins in 1975 in Montreal. He, the protagonist of this story, and the three main characters all grew up together since they were in their late teens. The story begins as Freddy and one of the main characters, who later becomes his right hand man and councilor, start their criminal empire by smuggling out jeans from a warehouse where they were employed. As this story of organized crime evolves, and the four young men mature into manhood, their criminal activities expand into different endeavors such as hijacking huge truck loads of pants, liquor fur coats, trafficking of hashish, home grown Marijuana , cocaine, gambling and implicates bribery, prostitution and multiple murders. Together, with the assistance of pay rolled henchmen, all governed by a strict code of honor and silence, Freddy, the leader, Reno Gandino,the right hand man and councilor, Joe Petrucci ,the financial consultant, and Willie Nadel, in charge of disciplinary actions ,meticulously orchestrate their way to the highest echelons of great wealth and power. At one point in the story, a member and confidant betrays them which triggers off bloody warfare with a rival much older and established powerful criminal organization. As the story progresses, it becomes more and more intriguing and captivates your attention as it leads you into a cavalcade of adversities, that the Rufino family must conquer in order to reign control of the cocaine industry in Montreal and in Brooklyn, New York. It is an easy flowing story filled with passion, intrigue, vengeance, grief, personal issues, legal and illegal business interests, calculated risks, lost loves, imprisonment, extravagance and a surprise sentimental ending which leaves readers wanting more. A lifetime in the making, I began writing ``Family Honor`` thirty eight years ago. My book is now available on Amazon as a kindle download or hardcopy edition. I believe, as well as many others who have read my story that this novel contains the knockout punch to entice the interest of the public around the world and will no doubt be the next great blockbuster movie or series. If you liked the ``The Godfather`` and ``The Sopranos`` then you will simply love ``Family Honor``. Family Honor is a fictional story you will want to read over and over again and make you hope a sequel will soon come about.
