A buoyant romantic comedy that uses mob-world chaos as a backdrop for a woman's escape and reinvention, balancing crime-thriller elements with genuine warmth and humor.

Angela de Marco is fed up with her gangster husband's line of work and wants no part of the crime world. When her husband is killed for having an affair with the mistress of mob boss Tony "The Tiger" Russo, Angela and her son depart for New York City to make a fresh start. Unfortunately, Tony has set his sights upon Angela -- and so has an undercover FBI agent looking to use her to bust Tony.
