After the boy's father extracts terrible revenge, father and son escape to New York, a teeming melting pot of immigrants. Max meets a young Polish girl, Sophie, who grows into a stunningly beautiful young woman. The two fall in love but their plans are shattered when Sophie is forced to marry a local crime boss and, once again, Max must watch as the most important person in his life is taken from him. Thus begins Max's ruthless climb to dominance of the New York underworld and Sophie's transformation from a submissive girl to a strong woman who will allow no man determine her fate."--Amazon.com.
