Alyssa Milano plays Patty Montanari, a tough widow and mother living in Brooklyn. She works for a local crime family and soon becomes entangled with the married crime boss (Jason Godley, Desperate Housewives). But as Patty rises higher in the organization, she finds herself mired in paranoia, betrayal and murder. Torn between the FBI, her family and the man she loves, can she pull the trigger and give it her all? Co-star James Caan (Oscar-nominated for his role in The Godfather) was cast in the film because he found this true story inspiring - a woman who dared to defy a notorious mob empire.
