Omertà Mario Puzo Novela Ediciones B. Barcelona. 2000, 350 págs.
Don Raymonde Aprile, quien había decidido retirase a tiempo del crimen organizado, es asesinado al salir de la Catedral de San Patricio, en Nueva York. Sus tres hijos contemplan la brutalidad del acto, ajenos a la vida que su padre llevaba dentro de la mafia. Astorre Viola, adoptado por el Don desde muy niño, en el momento de su repentina muerte a manos del plomo logra ver el rostro de los asesinos. A partir de entonces, dueño de los bancos internacionales que poseía Aprile, inicia una exhaustiva investigación uniendo fuerzas con los tres hijos del Don para encontrar a los homicidas. Kurt Cilke, agente del FBI dedicado por muchos años a la captura de Aprile, buscará los móviles del crimen, no sin antes convencer a algunos miembros de la mafia a violar la omertà (código de honor siciliano), a cambio de protección federal. Con esta emotiva novela, Mario Puzo, autor de varios libros en torno a la mafia –El Padrino, La cuarta K, El último Don– da cuenta una vez más de su maestría para desenmascarar la vida cruda y violenta que se teje detrás de todo sistema político. Omertà, su obra póstuma, cierra contundentemente el círculo iniciado con El Padrino.
