"I promised you safety. I promised you freedom. I didn't mean to break either one."

Mateo Rossi is a man of two worlds. In one, he's the Don of the most powerful mafia family in Chicago. In the other, he's a man who just wants a quiet life with you, his wife, and your daughter. And as the two worlds collide, he knows that he can only keep you safe for so long.

The Northside Saints. One of the most fearsome mafia families in Chicago. Led by Mateo Rossi, the Saints settle disputes with a decisive message. No drama. No mercy. Rivals whisper the name with grudging respect and thinly veiled fear. Because crossing them rarely ends well.
