The Family Corleone: Chapters 1 & 2

Chapter 1 sets up the tone of the book using a man devoted to his family not wanting to rat them out even at the cost of his own life, sort of like in the manners of the Steven Spielberg Indiana Jones trilogy, having an opening scene not necessarily about the main characters.
Chapter 2 introduces Sonny and Tom as well as who Tom is sleeping with, a fine woman with fine tastes. She also happens to be Luca DeGrasi's girl. They ponder what she is up to, as she made a whole big deal with Tom this chapter over whether he actually liked her or not.
Also, Mama Corleone don't want no gangsta kids, but seesa $50 bill in Sonny's pocket.
Ain't that a hook for a Godfather prequel?
