The Castellano Chronicles

When a federal judge's gambling debt spirals past a million dollars, Dante Castellano sends his crew to collect — no matter what it costs. Ezra and Marcus move through Los Angeles with brutal efficiency, settling scores, putting rivals in line, and protecting an empire built on fear. But a rival crew is closing in on their territory, a trusted lieutenant is nursing a grudge, and the hostess who knows everyone's secrets is feeding them to the federal task force building a case that could take it all down. As the walls close in from every direction, loyalty becomes the most expensive debt of all — and not everyone gets to walk away from what they're owed.

A lean, hard-edged crime thriller about power, betrayal, and the men and women who collect on both.
