Ω GENERAL SUMMARY Ω
Beneath the smoke and smog of the city, there lies a faint, shimmering light: the old Casa Blanca, more commonly known as Hotel California, a diamond of a place in its own right. Once the glistering hub of young Hollywood, it now stands serenely as a sort of iconic resort, reminding those who pass by of its timeless parties, stories, residents and fame. But there is a dark stain on the Hotel’s history, one that has pervaded through the ages and is just now coming under scrutiny by those who still inhabit its walls, for the mob presence is hard to ignore. With three mafias all pushing drugs and cycling cash under one roof it's only a matter of time before a full fledged mafia war erupts.
