The main character Karen DiCillia is the widow of Italian crime boss Frank DiCillia. She is a very young and good looking woman for a 43 year old widow, but she feels restrained because her deceased husband wrote in his will that she isn’t allowed to have romantic/sexual relations with any man after he has passed on. She is a smooth talker and stays calm in harsh situations but is angry that she has so many shady characters attempting to control her life in her husband’s place.

"Karen, Karen, Karen" (7) this is a significant quote because Frank Dicilia said this after Karen said she would fool around with other men if he did so with women. and because of this, it made frank write out a part of his will that said that she couldn't have any romantic relations with any men. and karen trying to escape this is what the plot of the book basicly is.

Dear Karen

I know that you don't want anything to do with Roland Crowe, but you must consider that he could use this situation to your disadvantge and get you in trouble. For example, if you refuse to have sex with him, he could go to Mr. Grossi and tell him that you had gone off with another man, and that would be bad. Now i'm not saying that you should have sex with him to prevent this from happening, i'm just saying that you should come up with a plan.

Sincerely

Ian
