Spanning decades from the late 1800s to present day, set in a small town outside NYC, Tuckahoe, NY, a poor Italian immigrant family, the Scalamarris, begin to amass wealth, only to be squeezed by the mafia, and ultimately slaughtered at the hands of Bugsy Siegel.

Fast forward to the 1990’s, unbeknownst to the great grandsons of the Scalamarris’, Chris, Tony and Sal, better known as the Columbus Avenue Boys, find themselves entrenched in organized crime, until coming face-to-face with their family’s horrific past. With the help of the FBI’s most eager agent, Dominique Tejata, Chris masterfully plans the boys exit from the mob when suddenly everything is once again on the verge of blowing up right before their eyes. Will the Columbus Avenue Boys continue the vicious cycle only to experience the same horrific fate of their forefathers?
