Just when it seems that there might be a way of getting through to Edgar, his mother reveals a secret that changes everything ...Vinnie is a teenage boy who knows exactly what his gangster father is capable of, of how he makes problems disappear. He also knows that he had become a very big problem for his father ...... One man's fight to give these children the future they deserve.
