Book Reviews of Double Cross: The Explosive, Inside Story of the Mobster Who Controlled America

Book Review: WHAT A SURPRISE!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

My wife got this book for me because I was reading MURDER MACHINE and could not put it down. Well, this one does not dissappoint either. Sam Giancana was one hell of a Don. This guy was into everything, but his claim to fame was running the Chicago Outfit once it took control of Las Vegas. Al Capone is all you hear when it comes to the Chicago mob, but other than Tony Accardo there were none stronger than Giancana. Just ask JFK!!!

Includes stunning first-time revelations concerning the deaths of JFK, Marilyn Monroe, and RFK. 16 pages of photographs.
