Vito Ricci faces the world with the idea that an honest man's labor cannot give him the good life. Determined to fulfill his quest for wealth and power, he becomes a made man in the Frazelli Crime Family and part of the drug underworld in his hometown in Italy. He is encouraged to expand the operation into America and settles in the big city of New York. There he is eventually made a mob boss by the heads of New York's Mafia families and given the right to run his own family as he sees fit and of course maintain control of the cocaine trade. Vito uses his new found drug money to purchase a luxurious condo skyscraper in Manhattan and crowns himself in the penthouse suite. Vito is now living the good life, but just when things can't get any better, his world receives a rude awakening by both law enforcement and his enemies. Vito knows about law enforcement, but he doesn't expect his enemies to be none other than the other wise guys who are not only part of his crime family, but live with him in the skyscraper as well.
