My name is Vincent Marelli, though most people call me The Wolf. Youve never met me, and if youre lucky you never will. But in more ways than you could think of, I own you.
I run the biggest criminal operation in the world. Were invisible but were everywhere. Wherever you go, whatever you do, however it is you spend your money, a piece of it lands in our pockets.
You would think that with that kind of power I would be invincible. You would be wrong. I made a mistake, one that a guy like me can never afford to make. I let my guard down. And because I did, my wife and daughters are gone. Murdered by terrorists with a lethal ax to grind.
That was my mistake.
But it was also theirs.
I wasnt looking for a war with them. No one in my group was. But theyve left me with nothing but a desire for revengeso a war is what theyll get. The full strength of international organized crime against every known terrorist group working today. Crime versus chaos.
We will protect our interests, and I will protect my son. We wont get them all, but I will get my revenge, or I will die trying.
They will know my name.
They will feel my wrath.
They will fear The Wolf.
