The Godmother is the story of Eunice Carter, the first black woman to become a prosecutor in America.
Eunice was the woman responsible for bringing Lucky Luciano, one of American history’s most notorious mobsters, to justice. Like many black women who changed the course of history, her story has largely been forgotten – until now.
This is a different kind of mobster story. In fact, the story isn’t about the mobster at all. It’s about the person who put him away.
