| Description: |
|
This stunning Mafia thriller bears many of the hallmarks of Toschess celebrated nonfiction: an uncanny familiarity with the darkest chambers of the human heart and a wildly elastic prose style. As Cut Numbers unravels a diabolically elaborate scheme to fix New York States lottery, it reveals the Mafia that only insiders knownot the powerful, well-oiled crime machine of myth, but the messy day-to-day business of violent crime, pornography, gambling, and extortion. |
