At the time, he has no idea that this romantic rendezvous will take him through the doorway into organized crime. When Vince and Tina tell everyone that they are going to get engaged, Tina's father tells Vince, that if he takes Tina past the Holland Tunnel, he will have something to contend with as he pointed to a shot gun hanging on the wall in the den.. During that time, Vince was having a problem with a local assemblyman and decided to return to California. Just before leaving, he received a call from Tina's father telling Vince what would happen if he decided to take Tina with him. Published 2010 Available at Amazon Books |
