House of King (Book 1). House of King, #1

New York City in the 1980s was a cesspool of corruption, violence and drugs. In a city gripped by fear, one man took it upon himself to bring order to the chaos, all while building an empire that would span the entire state. His name was Walter King, and the only thing more legendary than his reign was the path he blazed in his rise to the top of the underworld.          An homage to the great gangster stories of old, House of King tells the tale of one man's meteoric rise from obscurity to sitting on the throne of New York's most powerful criminal organization.
With his enemies seeking to overthrow him from all sides and at any cost, Walter discovers the only thing harder than seizing the crown is keeping it.          Welcome to the House of King.
