The Genna Brothers: Ferocious Fiends of the Turbulent 20's
10 pp · crime

When Tony Genna convinces his brothers Mike and Angelo that Prohibition is their golden opportunity, the three turn to bootlegging with ruthless efficiency—recruiting muscle, forcing tenement dwellers into clandestine whiskey production, and muscling out the competition. But their rise draws the attention of a rival gang led by Jim Boyle, who won't tolerate their brutal tactics and expanding territory. As violence escalates and bodies pile up, the Genna brothers discover that building an empire through fear and force comes with a price they didn't anticipate.

From his days as a hired gun to audacious breakouts using everything from bed springs to ambulances to a wooden gun, Hamilton's life reads like a catalog of ingenious schemes and narrow escapes. But even the cleverest artist can't outsmart his own past forever, and this autobiography holds one final twist that nobody saw coming.

Darryl Lane, a ruthless mobster caught between two rival crime bosses, survives a series of increasingly desperate assassination attempts that earn him the nickname "Lucky Lane"—but his extraordinary luck may be hiding a far more elaborate scheme. When Lt. Rankin and the police department stage an audacious undercover operation using Lane's own reputation against his enemies, the true architect of Lane's "five lives" is finally revealed. This gritty 1953 crime tale proves that sometimes the luckiest man in town is exactly where the law wants him to be.
