Thirty Pieces of Silver (Paperback)

Paperback. Vinnie Papilardo is a young retired boxer living in Philadelphia in the 1980s. He is trapped by the specters of his physical handicap and troubled youth. Vinnie is out of a job and desperate. So, he takes a job at an afterhours, classy nightclub as a bouncer-another dead-end living. One thing leads to another, and he finds himself in a shady situation as a shylock-a street money lender. His boundless ambition quickly gives rise to a successful, yet risky, career. Along the way he reconnects with his unrequited High School flame. Rash decisions lead to a major downfall, which endangers all that he worked so hard for. Will he be able to stop the wholesale destruction of busting faces, betraying loved ones and wrecking their future? This item is printed on demand.
