This book is about Chicago Mobster, Sam Giancana, who began his life of crime quite early on. He really got started when he became a hit man for Al Capone himself. He had business associates in high places, including the Shah of Iran. He knew Marilyn Monroe, who had ties to high ranking politicians. He helped the Kennedy family with their political agenda, only to be double crossed by them in the end. This was a really good book. I learned a lot.
