Contract Killer: The Explosive Story of the Mafia's Most Notorious Hitman Donald "Tony the Greek" Frankos

Of the hundreds of mob books ever written, this one does stand out. Are the stories true? I don't know but they do sound plausible. It's told in first person by Frankos and he mentions a lot of "the names." He tells stories of mobsters written in other books, that will make you want to go back and re-read them just to see how they fare. If you can find it, get it, it's a great read. Start your "mob book" collection with Contract Killer.

Excellent account of what happened to Jimmy Hoffa but how many books out there or stories are going around claiming the same thing? I guess we will never know but this is a very interesting version nonetheless and thats just 1 small part of the book. This guy talks about hit jobs like he talks about taking the dog for a walk. Its a piece of cake for him. Its hard to go into everything in a review but if you dig mob books you will dig this one. Its a really easy read and its pretty decent sized and it holds your interest!

This book sends you into the depths of organized crime. It shows you the scum of earth and what little regard for human life some have. I say it is a must read. I mean, this guy goes on weekend passes from jail to make some assasinations. Plus it glimpses at the corruption of high officials, like Joe Louis, the Kennedy's, and other "highly regarded" figure heads of our society.

I love non-fiction books. Especially crime stories. I have read a lot of books about La Cosa Nostra and I can honestly admit that this is the best one I have ever read. I would like to thank "Tony The Greek" personally for the entertainment! The best point that this author made was to forget about writing a story and to just write the truth. If I am to read non-fiction, I want it to be 100% non-fiction. This is it!!! Great book.
