The Consigliere

A Mafia Lawyer's Quest to Choose Love Over Revenge

De: Donna Masotto

Narrado por: John Wilkinson

In a most personal and riveting work, novelist Donna Masotto, presents The Consigliere.

A middle-aged mafia lawyer, Declan Quinn, believes his life is meaningless after the tragic drowning of his eight-year-old daughter. At a crossroads between misery and peace, he shuns his duties as the Consigliere and embarks on a search to find the sister he abandoned when he joined the mob 30 years ago. But first, Declan must confront his Don and face the past that haunts him, or hunts him down.

Inspiring and insightful, packed with themes of renewal and redemption, The Consigliere is the back-story of a man who joined the mob as a teen who now is in search for second chances and a life of happiness and meaning.

Confront the darkness. Leave the past behind. Reclaim destiny.

Amazing Book A Must Read For All.

I’m not a reader, but I love Listening to books. The way the author wrote this is truly wonderful, because when you listen to it the author’s descriptive word turn into a movie in your head. When you finish it leaves you wanting more. Yes, please, a sequel! I think everyone needs to read or listen to this great work. But don’t be surprised when you realize it’s not your typical gangster book; it has hard thought meaning of life to it. Do yourself a favor and find a comfortable spot and enjoy. I want to thank the author for writing this book.

Exciting story

Declan was very interesting leading man. Great story. Narrator (John Wilkinson) was really good. One of the best I've listened to. Hope he does more.

Irish Consigliere

Someone very close to me suggested I read the book and I am glad I did. I understand the author wanted to write the story with the intention of depicting what kind of family the Irish consigliere might come from, but found it hard to follow the story a little in its entanglements. It's specific geographical perspective and characterization of the Irish-American immigrants differed greatly from my own family's experience and was somewhat disturbing to me. Although the story is very sad it creates a space for this person to exist. I appreciate how the church ties into a redemption theme.

Redemption is available if you want it.

Donna Masotto's 1st book out the gate is extremely well written. She brought the characters to life as well as the scene they were in. Declano struggle with the loss of his daughter and his sister is what drives him to fond meaning in his life. I hope we see more stories from Donna. Good job.

Excellent Read

Donna Masotto’s first book out of the gate is a great read. The narration by John Wilkinson is excellent. He puts you right in the story. He becomes the characters with the various accents, he doesn’t just read it.

I highly recommend this book in paper or audio
