The Ambition by Yvonne Blackwood
The Ambition is an entertaining, sexy, cat-and-mouse crime thriller set in the cosmopolitan city of Toronto’s building industry. Driving ambition propels John Cippione to expand the business he inherited from his father too quickly, but big industry players conspire against him. Can John win the fight, and at what cost?
“The Ambition is a riveting story of high-finance business deals, Italian family ties, an illicit romance, and murder. You won’t soon forget Connie, Lorenzo, and the other vivid characters who populate this unique tale.”—Marcia Trahan, author of Mercy.
