Book Description

Publication Date: August 24, 2007

Soon after Chris Gennaro buys a winning $9 million lottery ticket, his bludgeoned body is found floating in the marina near his small boat. A few days later, his older brother, Nick, cashes in the ticket, leading his father, Nicholas “Nicky the Butcher” Gennaro, to suspect that Nick might be responsible for Chris’s death.

Since Nicholas has life-long connections to the Patriarca crime family, he decides to avenge the murder of his favorite son and orders a hit on his other son, Nick. But when breaking evidence shows that Nick is innocent of Chris’s murder, Nicholas is distraught. Now a new question must be answered: who killed Chris Gennaro?

With nonstop action and intrigue, Ticket to Paradise combines the drama of family tragedy, murder, and money.

Ticket to Paradise..what a great read. I really enjoyed this book. If I knew anyone in the movie business I'd get this book in someone's hand to read. Couldn't put it down, couldn't wait to see what happen next. And the ending, WOW. I read this book when it first came out, and just recently read again when my cable was out. Congratulations Joseph Bradley. Awesome story.

When you read this book, you can't help but think of a motion picture. Brotherhood, greed and a father's inner-turmoil make this book difficult to put down. Bradley knows murder mystery and will have you hooked from the beginning. Can't wait for the next book!!
