Money Wanders: A Novel

Get Shorty brought the mob to Hollywood. In this hilarious debut, Money Wanders brings a wiseguy mentality to Washington spin, media, and image. Jonah Eastman, disgraced Beltway pollster, is summoned home by his ailing grandfather Mickey Price, a legendary Atlantic City gangster. When Mickey dies, Jonah is "persuaded" by mob boss Mario Vanni to help improve his image by launching a PR campaign aimed at public acceptance and ultimately a way "outta the life". To pull this off, Jonah enlists the help of his grandfather's Prohibition-era cronies, pimply-faced hackers, a disgruntled Secret Service agent, a cagey D. C. lobbyist, and a street-fighting rabbi.
