To Save a Son - Hardcover
Eddie Franks had it all A good family, business success and the respect it brings . . . and a childhood rivalry he?d never overcome; not even marrying Nicky Scargo's sister had helped. Now Eddie knows he's in trouble: the backers Nicky has brought into Eddie's hotel chain are unquestionably mob, the FBI has accused him of laundering money . . . and Scargo's been murdered. Eddie Franks has a choice: go to jail or risk his life by testifying.

From Booklist:
The son of a Jew, Eddie Franks was literally carried across Europe on his father's back as the pair fled the Nazis. They ended up in England, but Eddie was then sent to America for safety. His father's friend, Enrico, took Eddie in, but this generosity was offset by Enrico's constant pitting of his own son, Nicky, against Eddie. Grown up and happily married, Eddie becomes a millionaire hotel owner. When Nicky offers him the chance to expand his empire into the Caribbean, Eddie is at first reluctant but then sees his chance to prove once and for all that he's the smarter and savvier of the two. In his quest to best Nicky, however, Eddie becomes involved with the Mafia, and his life begins to spin out of control. Readers will find themselves at once repelled by this strutting, gotta-prove-himself man while sympathizing with the circumstances of his downfall. Compelling, if disturbing, reading that will grab readers from the first page and keep them riveted till the shocking climax. Emily Melton
