Hello this is, Joshua L. Belmonte, creator an anctor on Merchant of Death. Merchant of Death is a story about Arthur Raggio, a former soldier in the US Army, who served in the Pacific Theater but cannot no longer find a job due to his delinquency as a youth. His wife and daughter are also now endangered of becoming homeless. Due to this and a chance meeting with a Capo from the Pezzuti Crime Family, Arthur now devotes his life to a life of crime, what will become of Arthur Raggio's soul. This series will explore these old mafia tropes and hopefully a bit more. I thoroughly researched mafia lore and about the life. Even though it's not the most realistic depiction of the life, just now that some of this may have happened. Now enjoy the first two acts of Merchant of Death, which showcases the brilliant acting by Aubrey Poppleton and Sharon Grunwald. Thank you for listening.
