"If you've ever seen The Godfather or watched The Sopranos, you might think you know what life is like in the seamy underworld of organized crime. Whether you know them as La Cosa Nostra, the Mafia, or simply the Mob, if you've bought into the glamorous Hollywood depiction of these criminals, you couldn't be more wrong.".

"In Mob Nemesis, former FBI Special Agent and Medal of Valor recipient Joe Griffin and writer/researcher Don DeNevi shatter the myths surrounding Hollywood's version of the Mafia. Here, you'll get the real story from a man who spent his law enforcement career observing the day-to-day behavior of these "instinctual killers," and for whom it was a matter of principle to bring them to justice."--BOOK JACKET.
