The Boss of Bosses: The Life of Totò Riina This is the true story of Totò Riina, the Cosa Nostra boss who rose from nothing to become the most powerful man in Sicily. A complex and gripping narrative unfolds, revealing the rise of a ruthless leader who outmanoeuvred his rivals to take control of the organisation. The book also explores the broader context of Sicily itself, weaving together a tale of power struggles, corruption and violence that spanned several decades. With thorough investigation and testimony, this account provides a haunting and disturbing portrayal of the Sicilian Corleone. Despite spending 18 years in prison, Totò Riina remains the dictator of the Cosa Nostra, his legacy a testament to the enduring power of the Mafia.
