The Hitmen: A Family of Killers for Hire The Wilson family's business was simple: assassination. Brothers Eric, Keith, John, their cousin Alan, and nephew Luke worked for Ireland's criminal gangs, bringing bloodshed and chaos to the streets. Their targets were anyone who stood in their way, from rival gang members to innocent civilians. The Hitmen is the shocking story of how this family cornered the market in intimidation and vengeance. The book details the terrible cost in human suffering, including the death of an innocent teenage girl, Mariaora Rostas, who was killed by the Wilsons. It also reveals how each of the Wilsons was eventually brought down, one by one. Drawing on exclusive access to wire taps, case files, and interviews with sources close to the gang, this is an extraordinary account of a family business like no other. Stephen Breen and Owen Conlon, the authors, have written a gripping and detailed exploration of the Wilson family's crimes. Their book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in true crime and the inner workings of organized crime.
