When you meet The Family you never forget them. Don Girolamo - the aging ruler of the invisible empire, who raises plants as a hobby and controls destinies as his sometimes painful duty. Don Vincenzo - a big man but a man in trouble, willing to do anything to anyone to survive. Rocco - Don Vincenzo's "valet," who finds him his girls, does his dirty work, and has his own brutal plans. Ben Fischetti - one of the "new breed," a bright young banker whose life is mortgaged to The Family - and to his overwhelming sexual drive. Tippy - not a member. Just a beautiful, swinging plaything that The Family turns into a weapon.
