Description
The Valachi Papers by Peter Maas In 1963, a shocking betrayal shook the foundations of America's Mafia. Joseph Valachi, a soldier in the Genovese Crime Family, decided to break the Mob's code of silence, revealing the inner workings of the organization and exposing the identities of those involved in its crimes. This remarkable story, told in Valachi's own words, provides a unique glimpse into the world of organized crime, from the capos to the hit men. Valachi's account is a chilling exposé of the Mafia's inner workings, detailing the organization's structure, its methods, and its victims. With a remarkable memory for details, Valachi provided the authorities with a wealth of information that led to the arrest and conviction of many high-ranking Mafia figures. This book is a fascinating and disturbing tale of power, terror, and the corrupting influence of organized crime.
