From his "wiseguy" relatives, he learned the meaning of <B>honor</B> and <B>loyalty</B>. From his fellow cops, he learned the meaning of <B>betrayal</B>.<P><B><I><CENTER>MAFIA COP</CENTER></I></B><P>His father, Ralph "Fat the Gangster" Eppolito, was stone-cold Mafia hit-man. Lou Eppolito, however, chose to live by different code; he chose the uniform of NYPD. And he was one of the best -- a good, tough, honest cop down the line. Butu even his sterling record, his headline-making heroism, couldn't protect him when the police brass decided to take him down. Although completely exonerated of charges that he had passed secrets to the mob, Lou didn't stand a chance. They had taken something from him they couldn't give back: his dignity and his pride.<P>Now, here's the powerful story, told in Lou Eppolito's own words, of the bloody Mafia hit that claimed his uncle and cousin...of his middle-of-the-night meeting with "Boss of Bosses" Paul Castellano...of one good cop who survived eight shootouts and saved hundreds of victims, who was persecuted, prosecuted, and ultimately betrayed by his own department. Full of hard drama and gritty truth, <I>Mafia Cop</I> gives a vivid, inside look at life in the Family, on the force, and on the mean streets of New York. 604031 1920 Mafia Cop total:16|5:3|4:6|3:3|2:3|1:1| 16 55 18 5 4 0 false false Tue Jun 09 05:50:36 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 05:57:04 -0700 2009 more...]]> 0 0 false false Tue Jun 09 16:51:01 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 09 16:53:16 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Jun 12 19:30:48 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 12 19:37:47 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Sep 30 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Nov 16 07:52:09 -0800 2008 Sun Nov 16 08:01:10 -0800 2008 more...]]> 1 0 false false Sun Sep 23 08:35:21 -0700 2007 Sun Sep 23 08:35:21 -0700 2007 more...]]> 0 0 false false Sat Jul 04 05:42:53 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 04 05:42:53 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Mon Apr 27 17:36:18 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 27 17:36:18 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Apr 17 22:11:02 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 22:11:02 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Apr 17 22:04:58 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 17 22:04:58 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon Mar 23 11:15:00 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 23 11:15:00 -0700 2009 2 0 false false Thu Mar 19 10:09:03 -0700 2009 Thu Mar 19 10:09:03 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sat Feb 28 21:02:27 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 28 21:02:27 -0800 2009 2 0 false false Thu Feb 26 08:42:22 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 26 08:42:22 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Wed Nov 19 13:16:48 -0800 2008 Wed Nov 19 13:16:48 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Sun Sep 14 18:17:09 -0700 2008 Sun Sep 14 18:17:09 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Mon Apr 28 07:30:15 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 28 07:30:15 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Wed Apr 09 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 14 19:24:59 -0700 2008 Mon Apr 14 19:25:44 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Wed May 30 14:11:20 -0700 2007 Wed May 30 14:11:20 -0700 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=617618
