The Ambition

In the hustle and bustle of 1990s Toronto, John Cippione and his older brother Carmine take over their hard-working Italian immigrant father’s small heating and air-conditioning company. John is determined to propel the business into the big leagues and finally have the lavish lifestyle he craves, so the brothers join forces with a powerful development company.

But when an industry player sets out to bankrupt them, they risk tarnishing their father’s name and losing the legacy he entrusted to them. With everything crashing down around them, they must scramble to survive in a dangerous game of adultery, murder, and ruthless ambition.

"The Ambition is a riveting story of high-finance business deals, Italian family ties, an illicit romance, and murder. You won't soon forget Connie, Lorenzo, and the other vivid characters who populate this unique tale."-Marcia Trahan, author of Mercy
