I should disclose that the author is a good friend of mine, so perhaps I am biased. I have, however, read several true crime books, and this is among the best. Copeland maintains a writer's detachment and doesn't allow the book to become a forum for his subject to justify his crimes or lifestyle. I also enjoyed learning about a part of the underworld I had never encountered before.
This book got a ton of great reviews but for some reason I could not get into the story or main character. The challenge was Geffen was maily a solo operator so I became exhausted with his personal issues as opposed to being a look into the mafia.
