"A comprehensive account of the legendary 1978 heist . . . impressive." -- Publishers Weekly The crime that inspired the movie Goodfellas . The rest of story that couldn't be told--until now. One of the biggest scores in Mafia history, the Lufthansa Airlines heist of 1978 has become the stuff of Mafia legend--and a decades-long investigation that continues to this day.

This blistering you-are-there account takes you behind the headlines and inside the ranks of America's infamous Mafia families--with never-before-told stories, late-breaking news, and bombshell revelations: Praise for ANTHONY M. DESTEFANO and His Acclaimed Books "Thrilling American crime writing." --Jimmy Breslin, author of The Good Rat and winner of the Pulitzer Prize "DeStefano is a master at cutting through the secrecy of the Mafia hierarchy." -- Publishers Weekly "The best and last word on the subject . . .
