“That isn’t true, it isn’t fair, and I’m sure I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have to go, Angie’s mom is coming over to plan for the service. I’m sure you’ll make time for that.” Her mother hung up before Sophia could argue further.

There were only two choices, Sophia thought. Take one and she’d spend her life like her mother, take the other and everything they’d ever said about her, about the little strega, would be true.

Twenty minutes later, she pulled up to the Pussy Cat Lounge. Big Bill owned all of the legal sex in the city, they said there wasn’t a ten spot put in a dancers G-string anywhere in town that a quarter of it didn’t get back into Bill’s pocket. When he’d taken over the Valencia family, he’d moved their center of operation from his grandfather’s deli to the Pussy Cat because it was easier to explain why so many suits would be in one place at one time if there were naked women and booze instead of capicola and pancetta. The feds seemed to appreciate their hours taping conversations from a strip club better too, which had its own rewards.

That’s where Big Bill was bound to be, and in all likelihood, Angie’s no good ex-husband Ricky Bugiardini.

None of the guys had parked out front, which meant they were in the back. She went around back and pulled the Z4 up behind her father’s silver Escalade. His driver, Mick, sat behind the wheel listening to his iPod, oblivious to the world around him. This was an ideal personality trait for a mob driver, not so much for a lookout. Sophia passed him, gun in hand, without him so much as looking up.
