9. Idea 1
Who Salvatore Luciana is the head boss of the modern day New York mafia. He is more commonly known as lucky Luciano, he adopted
this name after he survived a brutal attack where his throat was cut wide open from an assailant using a cut throat razor blade.
Salvatore runs all of the organized crime and illegal activities within New York and several other states.
What Luciano’s most trusted associates Carlo Gambino and Frank Costello conspire against Salvatore and frame him for
the murder of his own wife. This frame leads to Luciano's downfall as he end up in Americas most secure prison on
Alcatraz island. With Salvatore is prison Gambino and Costello rise up and take over the American mafia and
become the most powerful men in America. A few years go by and Luciano decides he can no longer stay in prison
knowing that he was betrayed by his most loyal friends and that they killed his wife just too frame him, so by some
luck he escapes the infamous Alcatraz prison and begins his journey to hunt down the men who betrayed him and
to avenge his wife.
Why Carlo Gambino and Frank Costello always wanted to one day run the New York mafia so they decided to start early
and frame their once good friend Charles Luciano, they brutally murdered Luciano's wife Giorgia Luciana and
planted evidence to suggest Charles was the one who committed the murder.
