Perhaps the most compelling gangster tale is one that has been,
until now, surprisingly well hidden. This is the story of the
Outfit: the secret organised crime cartel that began its reign in
prohibition era Chicago before becoming the puppet master of
Hollywood, Las Vegas and Washington DC. Moving with purpose and
panache, the Outfit blended effortlessly with underworld corporate
heads, Hollywood moguls, and national political icons. It was only
after a fifty-year run that their world started to crumble in the
1970s. With extensive research including recently released FBI
files, original interviews with Outfit associates and members of
the Fourth Estate (who pursued the Outfit for over forty years) and
first ever access to the journals of Humphreys' long-in-hiding
widow, veteran investigative journalist Gus Russo uncovers sixty
years of corruption and influence.
