Publisher Description
This is a memoir of a "Made Guy". By an American gangster who committed crimes on a huge scale.
CJ Rossi (not his real name) was born and raised in Brooklyn New York. After dropping out of school he embarked upon a life of crime which eventually saw him become affiliated to the Genovese crime family.
This book charts his meteoric rise and offers an unprecedented insight into the workings of the American Mafia. It also exposes the collusion between the Mafia and those who are trying to bring therm to justice. Federal Agents as well as the policemen in the NYPD who are often working hand in hand with "Wiseguys".
This book exposes the cynical truth behind the facade of law enforcement.
It also offers a very personal and intimate story of a man, his family and friends, in their day to day lives outside of the law.
Murders, violence, theft and corruption on an epic scale are all revealed in a candid and brutally frank life story.

Great story!
I had just finished Murder Machine and decided to read this book. I couldn’t put it down as the story just grips you, leaving you wanting more. Now it’s finished, I really want to know who the real ‘CJ Rossi’ is!! Great read but could have done with a little more professional ism by the author Jonathan, lots of grammatical errors. Can’t fault the actual contents though.
