Sandra B., Sandra B.

Sandra Benigno is afraid that her Mafia Capo husband has learned the truth—that their son, Billy, is actually the love child of a rival mob boss. Now, he’s putting Billy in the line of fire by bringing him into the Family business. Even worse, Billy’s been fooling around with his half-sister, the rival Capo’s daughter. What’s a mother to do? The year before, at an Arthur Avenue bakery, rookie FBI Agent Mark Oberlin offered Sandra help if she ever needed it, so when she gets wind of her husband’s newest scheme—where Billy will play a key role—she pleads with Oberlin to stop it. A Russian auto theft ring has found a priceless Faberge egg in a car at their Brooklyn chop shop. Problem is, the KGB has been snooping around on New York City soil, determined to repatriate looted Russian treasure. The car thieves need to get rid of it, fast—and this is why they’ve agreed to sell the egg to Victor, who secretly plans to “buy out” the whole Russian operation. Oberlin’s first move is to clear the case with his boss, Ken Schneider, who’s vowed to bring down these last two New York crime families before he retires. Next, he enlists the unique talents of the OC’s Top Echelon Informants—Benny Cataldo and Carmine Rizzo. But these two have motives of their own. What’s in it for them, and how do they stay alive as they play each side against the other? And none of them—cops, criminals or informants—are aware that two ruthless, and very lethal, female KGB agents are also out there, always one step ahead.
