BarCats

by Douglas Keil

During the spontaneous act of saving the BarCats from certain death, Ethan meets and falls in love with Annie, a mysterious woman who is sentenced to prison while trying to protect her Mafia uncle. Ethan finds himself in the crosshairs of the Feds and the mob as he risks all to obtain the release of Annie, now his wife. Along the way he inherits responsibility for a behemoth Sicilian bodyguard, learns some hard lessons from a dying con man, becomes entangled with a sleazy real estate agent and seeks assistance from a rebel Italian priest and a curious university law professor. The BarCats? They have a few words of advice to offer as well.

Interesting story and some memorable characters. Very realistic portrayal of western New York in the 70's. I liked it.
