Book synopsis

While J. Edgar Hoover was denying that there was such a thing as organized crime, in the forties, fifties, and sixties the mob was busy forming powerful syndicates in most of our large industrial cities. This book tells the fascinating, first-hand story of how FBI Special Agent Joe Griffin, with the help of a team of courageous professionals, succeeded through dogged determination and uncanny street smarts, in convicting major La Cosa Nostra leaders in Buffalo, Cleveland, Rochester, and Youngstown.Forget Hollywood's version of the mafia; this is the real inside story. All the more fascinating because it's true, Mob Nemesis is an engrossing story of the underworld from a man who took them on and won.
