Following up on the success of the Adrenaline title Mob: Stories of Death and Betrayal from Organized Crime, Adrenaline Classics brings back the New York Times bestseller (originally published as Killer) that helped pave the way for the latest generation of nouveau-mob stories, from Donnie Brasco to The Sopranos. "Joey"—a journeyman Jewish hitman, numbers king, and loan shark—collaborated with David Fisher (co-editor of the hit Adrenaline title Wild Blue) to lay out the rackets in gripping detail. His story includes detailed accounts of his chillingly "professional" murders of thirty-eight victims. The strong sales of Mob are further evidence that the best mafia stories—and this is one of the best—capture the public's interest. Joey the Hitman's original best-seller status reflects the quality of the writing, the frank intelligence of the subject/writer, and Joey's convincingly matter-of-fact, regular-guy tone. When he writes, debunking The Godfather, "... Actually very few mob members even have Bronx-Italian accents ... a lot of mob people are not very tough, the people we meet and deal with are very ordinary, most of us stay home at night and watch TV, and we only shoot each other when absolutely necessary," you know you're listening to the original Soprano. This edition includes a new afterword from David Fisher, who for the first time reveals Joey's identity and the incredible story of how Joey finally died.

From the author of the star reviewed Garden State Gangland comes an in-depth exposé on East Harlem's notorious Purple Gang whose murderous exploits became a media obsession and Mafia lynchpin. In the late 1970s, a string of seemingly unconnected murders had Harlem police and federal authorities at their wits’ end until they realized several commonalities. The victims were all either Mafia members or potential witnesses of Mafia activity and they’d all been shot from .22 pistols traced back to a single private sale in Florida. From these details, the FBI and police were able to build a profile of a rogue sect of Mafia hitmen known as the East Harlem Purple Gang. Starting on the fringes of Mafia families, the Purple Gang members became indispensable and installed members in the highest ranks of the Genovese, Bonanno, and Lucchese families. Often serving as freelance hitmen, kidnappers, and drug traffickers, the Purple Gang’s exploits quickly crossed into mythology as media outlets scrambled to keep up with new murders and the law’s crusade to bring the gang members to justice. Sifting through the mystery and mythos, author Scott M. Deitche brings readers into Harlem’s gritty streets to experience the Purple Gang’s reign of terror, the investigators who tried to bring them down, and the gang members who either suffered violent ends or are still at large today.

Are you fascinated by the mafia? Do you want to learn the stories of some of the deadliest men of the past one hundred years? Do you want to know one of the many ways that the mafia managed to keep control over the USA for so many years? One of the easiest ways that mafia bosses would keep control is to have hitmen working for them. Dangerous, cold-hearted men who killed without any thought whatsoever. Who were these men? How did they become the way they were? How did they kill? Why did they kill? In this book, we'll talk about many infamous mafia hitmen and answer the above questions about them. Just a few of the hitmen we'll be talking about include: ● Sammy "The Bull" Gravano and the reasons he became one of the most important flips on the mafia to date, plus, how he ended up in prison again for the second time ● Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski and the crazy ways he would get away with his murders and all the genius ways he'd get rid of a body ● Thomas Pitera and the years he spent in Japan studying samurai ● Giuseppe Greco and his death crew ● Joseph Barboza and the actual, totally crazy reason he was often referred to as "The Animal." ● Abe Reles and his mysterious death; he thought he was safe and he really wasn't; was he actually trying to escape or is there something far more sinister at play here? ● Alexander Solonik and the absolutely incredible things he could do with two guns, and his never-ending determination to stay out of prison ● Benjamin Siegel, the father of Las Vegas and the only one who says it's potential to become what it is today It's hard to pinpoint the reason to why reading about these people, and their horrific crimes are so fascinating, but we're not here to explain that. We're just here to give you enjoyable, fascinating stories, and there's no shame in that. The stories in here are shocking, twisted, and pretty amazing. So, if you're interested in finding out about any of these men and how they got away with their crimes or just are interested in hitmen in general, this book is definitely a good part to start full of enjoyable stories.

This true crime biography by a Mafia insider chronicles the hair-raising life of the notorious Colombo crime family boss. In the golden age of organized crime, Carmine “The Snake” Persico was the King of the Streets. The defacto boss of the Colombo Mafia family since the 1970s, he oversaw major rackets and legendary gang wars. Suspected of committing scores of murders and ordering hundreds more, he was sentenced to 139 years in federal prison. Yet even behind bars he continued to exert power over a vast criminal empire with the help of his brother, Alphonse "Allie Boy" Persico. In this blistering street-level account, “Mafia survivor” Frank Dimatteo teams up with veteran true-crime author Michael Benson to reveal the inside story of Carmine’s criminal career. Growing up on the mean streets of Brooklyn, Carmine got an early start as the leader of the fearsome Garfield Boys. He was recruited into the Profaci and Colombo crime families before his bloody betrayal of the Gallo brothers. This volume captures all the drama of Carmine’s infamous exploits—including his role in the ambush-slaying of Albert Anastasia—and the many courtroom trials where witnesses against him came down with sudden cases of amnesia.
