Beneath the glistening, spectacular skyline, seven million people bustling on a gritty tough surface. And beneath that surface, a massive criminal enterprise called The Mafia, or La Cosa Nostra. A powerful, violent, secret society with roots in the United States dating back to the first wave of Italian immigration to this country.
