GOLD COAST is a gripping tale set in the fabled Gold Coast on the North Shore of Long Island, once home to America’s most opulent and powerful families. The narrative centers on John Sutter, a Wall Street lawyer clinging to his fading aristocratic lineage, and Frank Bellarosa, a Mafia don who invades this exclusive domain with the force of a modern-day barbarian chief. Their paths converge when Bellarosa orchestrates an unexpected and perilous encounter that draws Sutter and his regally beautiful wife, Susan, into his tumultuous world.

Through Sutter’s sardonic and often hilarious perspective, the story weaves together themes of friendship and seduction, love and betrayal. Laced with sexual passion and suspense, this captivating novel offers a vivid portrayal of the stark contrasts between old money and new power in America’s wealthy enclaves.
