The spellbinding Mafia memoir from Lynda Milito, wife of Gambino family captain, Louie Milito.
This is an unforgettable, intimate portrayal of Lynda Milito's strong, but often harrowing, marriage to Mafia hitman, Louie Milito. It is also a personal story about her own attraction to danger, her yearning to escape her mother's stifling care, family dysfunction, spousal abuse, helping Louie with his minor criminal exploits, and mental illness.
She delves into her past and confronts the demons that led her to live the life she did, culminating in her husband's disappearance and death, her own struggle with manic depression, and estrangement from her two children.
Her story is full of startling revelations, intriguing characters, senseless killings, ominous answers and vignettes of life and death in America's Mafia - an inner sanctum and underworld of greed and power, with a veil of bloodshed and death always hovering above.
