  They were the most powerful gang in Chinatown. Like the notorious crime families of the Italian Mob, the Asian youth gang known as the Ghost Shadows carved out their own territory in New York's underworld and ruled those streets for decades. Their leader Peter Chin, a young immigrant from the outskirts of Hong Kong, not only found a new family among his fellow gang members but became one of the two most powerful men in Chinatown's history at that time. Eventually it all came crashing down—when Chin and twenty-four other Ghost Shadows were indicted and imprisoned for racketeering. But throughout his twenty years in prison, and even since his release, Chin has kept his code of silence. Until now.

It was a quality that didn't go unnoticed by Frank Costello—father figure, mentor, and legendary crime boss. Thanks to Costello, Gianni was only twelve when his luck would change for a lifetime.

  Lying - Communicating False...

  Lying, the deliberate act of communicating false information, has been a part of human behavior for centuries. It is a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that plays a role in many aspects of life, from personal relationships to politics, business, and beyond. While most people recognize lying as morally wrong, it remains a pervasive and unavoidable part of the human experience. This chapter will explore the nature of lying, the different types of lies, and why people engage in this behavior. 
  At its core, lying involves providing information that the speaker knows to be false, with the intent to deceive the listener. Unlike mistakes or misunderstandings, lies are intentional and often involve a conscious decision to mislead. Lying can take many forms, ranging from small, seemingly harmless "white lies" to more harmful and deliberate fabrications designed to achieve personal gain or avoid consequences. While some lies may appear trivial, others can have significant consequences, leading to broken trust, damaged relationships, or even harm to others. 
  The act of lying is not limited to individuals but can also be embedded in larger societal and cultural practices. From politicians who manipulate public opinion to corporations that mislead consumers about the quality of their products, deception is often employed as a tool to achieve power, influence, or financial success. Understanding the motivations behind lying is key to understanding its prevalence and persistence in society. People lie for various reasons: to protect themselves, to avoid punishment, to gain an advantage, or to spare others' feelings. The reasons behind a lie often depend on the context and the perceived consequences of telling the truth.
