The Godfather's Revenge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Godfather's Revenge, a 2006 novel written by author Mark Winegardner, is the sequel to The Godfather Returns. The story takes place from 1963-1964, and picks up the story from where The Godfather Returns left off. The novel deals with the escalation of Michael's uncertainty, his regret, and his guilt-ridden conscience, with Nick Geraci's plots of revenge, with Tom Hagen's being implicated in a murder, and organized crime's battle with a presidential family (the Sheas, who are analogous to the Kennedy family).

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The story begins with Michael Corleone having a dream in which his brother Fredo, whom he had killed, warns him of a coming threat. At the same time, the apparition tries to give Michael a message, which he doesn't comprehend.
