A book about Chin Gigante who would be better known as the bathrobe, Don. Most of the material or information it seemed to me comes from his older brother who also happens to be a Priest. You do get a little of what he would do around the neighborhood walking around in a bathrobe and slippers. Also showing up at court like that as well. He did rise through the Genevese crime family to actually run it at one time.
It would have been nice if the author would have gotten some of the old trial transcripts from early on when he was actually let go with an insanity plea and would go to a mental hospital occasionally just to keep the act going once, he passed the first doctors test. You do get some background but not as much as I have read from other books.
It would take years to take him down and to discover his second home. It would have been nice to have more of the investigation in what it took to take him down and the fact that someone actually on the task force saw him one night when he was not in his bathrobe after one of his associates killed a female detective. Still, this was a good book that I thought could be better. Another interesting fact is one of the few men to botch a hit when he was younger and still rise to the top.

Interesting, though a slow start that wasn't my cup of tea overall.
