About the Book

It's 1956 - the peak of Mafioso involvement with Professional Boxing... So, what would happen when two separate, Mafia-born, boxing managers put the fix on two different fighters in the same match? You'll get the wildest, most outrageously unique fight of all time. The story's main character, Gino Morella, is the loyal son of an elderly Mafia Don - Renato Morella. When the elderly Don is hospitalized after an altercation with an angry 'organ grinder's monkey', his son, Gino, must ensure the outcome of the match or else watch the family's finances end up in ruins. Of course, every match has a winner and a loser. Naturally, the Mafia team who is on the losing end of the match demands restitution. This is a whacky, action-packed story loaded with many unpredictable surprises. This 'black comedy' is a wonderful blending of 'nasty' and 'fun'...
About the Author: So, what inspired me to write this book? The man pictured on the front of the book cover is a well-known, talented, Canadian actor named Rick Cordeiro. He is also an avid, UFO enthusiast - like myself. We met each other on Twitter, and he ended up reading my 'fact-based fiction' series called: Nataliee's Alien Nightmare - a scary, yet fun-to-read book about alien abduction. Rick liked my writing style, which is dedicated to non-stop entertainment, and fun dialogue. As I got to know Rick, I found out that he enjoys acting in Mafioso roles and comedy. That's when I 'connected the dots', and decided to write this black comedy called: SON OF A DON. With Rick's talent and connections, I look forward to seeing him immortalize the character, Gino Morella, to become a 'loveable, tough guy', who audiences will openly cheer for. Thank you, Rick, for your inspiration and support. I greatly appreciate it. Personally, I enjoy writing in a variety of genres. I have another book coming out called: The Princess and the Viking. I co-authored that book with Grace Christie, which is set in 1700's Ireland - loosely based on the real lives of actual people in both of our family trees. Soon, I will continue with my alien abduction series, co-authored with Bob De Long. The next one will be called: Nataliee's Alien Nightmare III: The Bermuda Triangle Escapade. Of course, I'll be waiting for my friend, Rick Cordeiro, to tell me to start writing an action-packed sequel to SON OF A DON... I always welcome any feedback. My website is: www.markusfredericks.com. You can also find me on Facebook and Twitter.
