In the event of family feuds, there is dissention and separation, and sometimes lasting bitterness amongst both sides. Growing up, Justice Santiago didn't know his family's secrets because his grandmother and mother kept them from him. Coming up all he ever knew was the streets, and the game that his mother had taught him, before she was sentenced to life under the Federal Rico Law. As we all know everything hidden always comes to the light. When his family goes to war, Justice finds out that he has an older brother, that he never knew, and that his family is one of the most violent crime syndicates in the United States, once headed by his late grandfather and grandmother, whom over a decade ago were King and Queen of the Santiago Crime Family South. As secrets are revealed history repeats itself once again when the family war is reborn. Justice is forced to take the reins when his long lost brother tells him that he is dying of cancer. The Santiago Crime Family is up against overwhelming odds, as they face off against the combined forces of the Sanderson Crime Family and the Mexican Cartel to settle old scores and to determine whose family is truly worthy to run the South. Will Justice and his street team be enough to turn the tide of the war or will Justice and his family be annihilated?

All types of organizations, for profit, not-for-profit, lawful, and unlawful, must be relentless in highly competitive, and constantly evolving environments. Every day iconic brands like Sears, Kodak, and Blockbuster vanish. Managers in lawful companies face disruptive technologies, groundbreaking new products, and competition from new entrants. Every organization must manage its way through a rapidly shifting world, or else fail. Yet some organized crime syndicates last decades despite massive law enforcement efforts and rival gangs directed at their daily demise.The American Mafia, which burgeoned during Prohibition in the 1920s, still operates in the twenty-first century. The Sinaloa Cartel remains the largest smuggler of drugs into the US, despite jailing its leader, El Chapo Guzmán, in a US supermax prison. How do these criminal syndicates survive, and even thrive? They apply fundamental economic principles to devise management practices that channel their heinous members' self-interest to achieve the syndicates' objectives.Relentless uses the most unexpected organizations, crime syndicates, to elucidate essential economic concepts that allow all leaders to build stronger, more robust companies. These concepts align the organization's business strategy and employee empowerment, incentives, and corporate culture. These principles attract the right people to create resourceful, market-obsessed, and relentless high-performance teams. Understanding the management practices devised by mobsters illustrates the economic concepts that lawful managers also must heed. While lawful managers cannot simply follow the business practices of mobsters, they must apply the same fundamental principles described in Relentless.<BR>
