Synopsis/Details
Manny’s break from crime is short lived when his brother, David, is killed in the cross fire of warning factions. Manny with his Jewish and Italian crew explode on the underworld scene as Manny plants his flag as a real gangster in the City of Brotherly Love.
With a rash of unsolved murders in the underworld, the FBI are at a loss as to who is actually committing these murders. Everyone seems to have an alibi. Everyone seems to be innocent. Episode one takes us into the fold as we are introduced to the Lanzetta crime family and it's struggle to keep a grip on the Philly rackets.
Lost love, betrayal and violence fill this historically influenced story to the top with action and excitement. With two seasons completely written and ten seasons mapped out, Misery Kings has taken the Murder Inc. historical influence and has brought it to modern day Philadelphia.
