About the Book: Unbelievable tales have been told of the Italians, Colombians, and other immigrants in America, but none have been told of the Africans. All-peoples, as he is known, believes that his destiny is to help his people, so everything he does—whether he is negotiating a cocaine deal, planning a murder, or starting a restaurant chain that becomes a household name—is toward this destiny. One of his greatest successes is his son Eze, whose most important wish is to be accepted as his father's son—until a bomb blast in which innocent people he loves are slaughtered.
