Even though there have been many books written about this, I had never heard about it until I saw it on Netgalley. Back in the 1970s through the mid-1990s, two homicide cops in NYC worked for the mob.
Lou Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa killed for the mob and passed information to them. Eppolito's father was in the mob, but Lou wanted to be a cop. When he didn't get the recognition he that he deserved from being a cop, ⬇️

Currently on Bright Young Dead for both the #decadeschallenge (set in 1920s) and the #tbrdeckofcards (foiled cover). It‘s not really meshing but I‘m almost halfway through.
so-soI can kinda see why it‘s a classic, but I just didn‘t connect with it. Still, it filled prompts in for the #decadeschallenge (set in 1910‘s), and 8 of diamonds for #tbrdeckofcards (number in the title). #20in4
