En stort anlagt fortælling om et gangsterimperium skildret indefra. En rapport fra den amerikanske underverden, hvor sicilianere spiller en fremtrædende rolle. Her er mord og vold, korruption og terror - og nådesløs kamp mellem de rivaliserende Familier med stort F, et pænere navn for bander. Det er farlige folk, men sølle er de i deres elendighed. Beretningen om dem er velskrevet og forfærdende.
Mario Puzo synes virkelig sagkyndig og giver forløbene et hålvdokumentarisk og afslørende præg. De mange spegede tråde udredes virtuost under motto af Balzac: "Bag enhver stor formue ligger en forbrydelse".
