A provocative story, Son of Scarface is a young man's search for his father's mysterious past. The simple, loving and honest parent had a double life and secret history that placed his unsuspecting family in a troubling legacy. In his autobiography, Chris Knight details how he uncovered the truth behind a family secret he heard as a young boy at his father's funeral. An unbelievable story, his father lived his entire life with deep secrets rivaling fiction. Growing up in a broken home, Chris and his sister were physically abused by their mother, whose actions were perhaps an attempt to safeguard her children from the truth that their grandfather was American s most infamous gangster Al Capone--Scarface. Al Capone s life, as a devout catholic, family man, soldier of goodwill and fortune, directly contrasts the pains and trails his progeny had to undergo. In his efforts to put his life back together, Chris Knight courageously uncovers many previously unknown secrets of the murderous Scarface.
