It is also the residence of John Sutter, lawyer - very top-drawer, old money, right clubs - and his sensual wife, Susan. Their lives are about to be turned dramatically upside down by their new 'next-door' neighbour - a certain Mr Frank Bellarosa, top Mafia don and master manipulator. It is he who will impress upon them a rule much older than the archaic etiquette of the old-money set: a favour accepted is a favour owed. A modern classic, this stylish, compelling and provocative novel will grip you, shake you, challenge you; but above all it will enthrall you. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - BORINGI like to finish books that I start. I haven't quite finished this one yet, and I'm having a REALLY hard time getting through it. I keep waiting for something to happen. I'm about 3/4 of the way thru it and nothing yet. This is a really boring book and nothing like Plum Island. I wish I had read the 1 star reviews before I purchased it. Rating: - I liked this book.Ok, truth be told, my wife bought this book at a used bookstore because it was purple and it matched some candle that she had. So, the book sat on its side in the bathroom for 2 years with a candle on it until one day when I needed something to read. No joke. I couldn't put the book down and loved the story. I'm a big mafia buff so the Don's involvement was fascinating to me. I'll definitely read more of DeMille's work. Rating: - Mary from NoviBoring at the beginning - but gets good in about the middle (and is great at the end). Not one of DeMille's best though. Rating: - One of the GreatsAs so many have already said, this is simply a great book and a must read for anyone seriously interested in nonfiction novels. Probably DeMille's best effort. Rating: - First time readerThis is the first book I have read by this author. It was rather interesting especially with the humor of the main character. I do plan to read The Gate House when it is in paperback. Browse for similar items by category:
