Dario Santini enjoyed his work as muscle for mob boss Niccolò Mechini. He commanded respect, wielded power, and loved a good woman. Then he crossed the wrong line and took bullets on a sidewalk. Death should have ended his story, but Dario opens his eyes in Hell itself. Eternal torment stretches before him unless he can flip damnation into opportunity. The underworld runs on different rules, but business is still business. Dario sets his sights on the ultimate boss, Satan himself, ready to gamble everything in a game where losing means more than death. He must navigate infernal politics where former enemies become allies and every deal costs a piece of his soul. This dead gangster plans to climb Hell's hierarchy, but the Devil holds all the cards. Can Dario turn his criminal skills into salvation, or will Hell's house always win?
