Son of the Mob

Son of the Mob is by Gordon Korman. Vince Luca has a problem. His father is the local mob boss and even though he wants no part of "the life" he is still his father's youngest son. He also has a new girlfriend, whose father is the FBI agent assigned to build the case against his father. How does he tell Kendra who his father is? How does he explain why he can't meet her parents and she can't meet his? He can't exactly get the folks together for a meet-and-greet! A funny and amusing story of a young man's struggle to do the right thing in a world where everything he has and does seems to be wrong.
