True Crime and i loved it, i devoured it, i could not get enough. Pictures, heck yah i wanna see pictures of these bad dudes, and this book showed me. Abe Reles was the most feared hit man for Murder Inc.gang and he was taken into tight protective custody, He has decided to talk. Funny how he died while in custody. He came flying out of a 6th story window at the Coney Island's Half Moon Hotel. Did he fall, or did he have help? It is still unsolved. This book tells about the gang of New York's underworld that murdered and ruled in the era of the early 1940's. I found it a fantastic true read of history.
