The Head of the House

Isadore Hargett, Jewish Lord of the Underworld — the man even the Mafia feared — the man even the Senate couldn't touch. His saga spans four decades — years in which a terrified peasant boy learned the art of murder–for–survival in the war torn fields of Brest–Litovsk. Years in which the bootleg industry ruled the country with rotgut and blood.Years in which the Vegas casino owners played a deadly game for ultimate control. Years in which Hargett inherited the syndicate of Nathan Beckstein...ordered the castration of Trigger Joe Magiunto...raised a daughter...attended his own funeral. Years in which he lived a story spattered in blood.
