Reviews
"A disturbing, jagged true-crime thriller worthy of prime Hammett, Chandler or Puzo." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) "It's hard enough to write without risking your life. Sandra Harmon did both in her tense, penetrating psychological portrait of the wiseguy who went right and paid the price. A true thriller in the tradition of Donnie Brasco and Goodfellas ." -Robert Graysmith, author of Zodiac and Auto Focus "An absorbing and intriguing look at a Mafia family whose violence and treachery knew no limits." -Vincent Bugliosi, author of The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder "Harmon writes well and swiftly about one of this century's most feared, duplicitous Mafiosos-Greg Scarpa, a war captain in the Colombo crime family, a man who had his eye shot out in a gun battle, a man who was so fond of shooting people that he regularly said, 'I love the smell of gunpowder,' a man who played both sides of the fence-dedicated Mafioso, and informer for the FBI. Hell of a read." -Phil Carlo, author of The Ice Man "A vivid and accurate account of one of the most notorious and ruthless families in the history of organized crime. Sandra Harmon has captured…the very essence of the Scarpa family in all its savage, corrupt, and murderous glory. A great read!" -Michael Vecchione, chief of the Rackets Division, Kings County District Attorney's Office "The implications drawn in this book about the FBI's fitness as a law enforcement agency-as well as its capabilities in protecting our nation from terrorism-are staggering.… A can't-put-it-down read." -Michael Levine, former DEA agent, trial consultant, and author of Deep Cover

Synopsis
The Scarpas were a Mafia dynasty led by Greg Scarpa Sr., a man so addicted to killing that he was nicknamed "The Grim Reaper." His son, Gregory Jr., was slowly drawn into his father's dark world. What only father and son knew was that for thirty years, starting in the 1960s, Scarpa Sr. was an informant for the FBI. Then, faced with arrest two decades later, Greg dropped the time on his own son. Gregory Jr. was imprisoned alongside terrorist Ramzi Yousef. He offered to trade information on Yousef with the government in exchange for leniency, providing detailed intelligence on what would eventually result in the September 11attacks. His warnings were ignored, and he was sentenced to forty years to life in prison, where he remains. A story that gained national notoriety, this is an "enthralling look at ties between the Mafia and the FBI" ( Booklist).

However it was delivered in a plain white plastic envelope. They should have at least used a bubble pack lined shipping envelope for protection of the item inside. They should re-think their shipping & packaging strategies, especially with much much older delicate items. Other wise no problems whatsoever with seller. Recommended seller. A+
