Ten Facts about Anton from The Arrangement

People often like an inside look at one of the characters of a novel before they pick it up and read, so, today, I thought I’d share with you ten inside details about my hero in The Arrangement, Anton Avdonin. I hope these little tidbits will give you a look at him from his professional standpoint as well as the faults and expectations he had from being human. 

1)      Anton is a Pakhan—or Boss—in the Bratva, also known as the Russian Mafia. He took over the position after his step-grandfather died a couple of years back.

2)     He’s possessive and easily made jealous. What’s his is his, but he’s not a little boy playing the mine game.

3)     He has a couple of tattoos. Tribal vines that go over his shoulders and down his arms. A black, tribal rose on his chest to signify he is a ‘made’ man in the Russian Mafia. A star on each shoulder to signify his position in the mafia as very high ranking. And a single inverted cross between his thumb and forefinger to mark him having preformed a worthy hit for his family.

4)     He’s only been in love the once, but he’s never forgotten the woman who made him feel it.

5)     His middle name is Daniil, named for his father who is currently dying of cancer. Something in which Anton is devastated about.

6)     When he was four, the marriage between him and Viviana Carducci (the daughter of a Cosa Nostra Don) was arranged. It wasn’t until he was eighteen that he finally accepted the marriage and Viviana.

7)     As a boss, he is ruthless and he always demands respect, but he is fair.

8)    With other men, Anton is heavy on the fists if someone disrespects the woman he loves. For Viviana, his hands never hurt her … not unless she wants them to. *winks*

9)     He loves fast cars, bourbon, and guns. Guns are his favorite, though.

10) Anton was never pushed towards organized crime, but he was groomed for it, he simply drifted there in the end because he was made for it. He is, essentially, a born leader. And he does it incredibly well.
