Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The shocking and unprecedented true story of how an undercover FBI agent infiltrated the Gambino crime family, perfect for fans of Wiseguy, The Pretender, and American Radical.Petey Chops wasn't kicking up. And if he didn't start soon, he was going to get whacked. So begins the extraordinary true story of an undercover FBI agent's years-long investigation of the Gambinos, resulting in a string of arrests that crippled the organized crime syndicate. But long before Joaquin "Jack" Garcia found himself wearing a wire with some of the Mafia's top capos, he was one of the FBI's unlikeliest recruits.

But his biggest opportunity came when he infiltrated the shadowy world of the Mafia, but how would the Cuban American convince wiseguys that he was one of their own For the first time, the FBI created a special "mob school" for Jack, teaching him how to eat, talk, and think like a wiseguy. And it wasn't long before the freshly minted Jack Falcone found himself under the wing of one of the Gambinos' old school capos, Greg DePalma. DePalma, who cared for an ailing John Gotti in prison, introduced Falcone to his world of shakedowns, beatings, and envelopes of cash, never suspecting that one of his trusted crew members was a federal agent. A page-turning account of the struggle between law enforcement and organized crime that will rank with such classic stories as Donnie Brasco, Serpico, and Wiseguy, Making Jack Falcone is an unforgettable trip into America's underworld through the eyes of a highly decorated FBI veteran.…
