Not a genre i usually pick up, i was hoping this book would change my mind, but it didn't. It started out alright; obviously it was well-researched, but the characters were rather bland. The deal-breaker was the first real fight--it read more like a cop filing a report than an action scene, and i immediately lost interest.

If you want hard facts about organized crime, and a professional recounting of reality-based, fictional events, this is the book for you. If you like cinematic fight scenes, not so much.
