Donovan Doyle
Donovan Doyle has spent his entire life as part of one of the most notorious families in America. Based in Boston, the Doyles have been at the head of the Irish Mob for more than six generations, and now, with the death of his older brother Finn, Donovan is now the boss. The godfather. But being the boss isn't without it's troubles, whether it's enemies looking to take what belongs to the family, or rivals within the family looking to test his control.
With the laughter and loud singing of another Doyle family dinner still filling the downstairs of the house, Donovan quietly made his way up to the second floor to check on his wife, Vanessa. She had disappeared about twenty minutes ago, complaining of a headache. Donovan was reasonably sure that "headache" was code for "drank too much and need to lie down". As expected, he found her passed out on the bed in the master suite. As he stood next to the bed staring down at her, he casually loosened the bow tie she'd insisted he wear that night, then unbuttoned the top button of his shirt. With a sigh, Donovan reached down and lifted his wife's right leg up onto the bed from where it was it was dangling off the edge.
He made no attempt to wake her. Instead he slipped from the bedroom and started down the hall, determined to check on the only other member of his immediate family, and another person conspicously absent from the festivities downstairs, his teenage stepdaughter. Moving to stand in front of her bedroom door at the other end of the hall, Donovan listened for signs that she was still awake, then tapped lightly on the door.
