Description

The Last Godfathers charts the spectacular rise and fall of the richest and most powerful crime family in history: the Sicilian mafia's Corleonese clan. John Follain follows the bloody trail left by the three who headed the clan from the 1950s onwards and the state's attempts to hunt them. His impeccable research is based on thousands of pages of judicial documents, wiretap transcripts, the testimony of mafiosi defectors and interviews with investigators. The Last Godfathers has been described by historian Andrew Roberts as, 'compulsively readable ... a scintillating mixture of history, true crime and whodunit.'
