The devil may dance : a novel / by Tapper, Jake,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."Charlie and Margaret Marder, an established power couple in 1960s Washington DC, know all too well how the tangled web of power in the nation's capital can operate. But as they settle into their more sedate family life, they are suddenly recruited by Attorney General Robert Kennedy to learn more about a threat not only to the presidency but the security of the United States itself. In Los Angeles, they enter the world of stars and studios, attempting to figure out who is a friend and who a foe in a town built on illusion. At the center of their investigation is Frank Sinatra, a close friend of President John F. Kennedy and a rumored Mob crony, whom Charlie and Margaret must befriend in order to get the inside scoop. Drinks by the pool at the Sands and late-night adventures with the Rat Pack soon lead to the dead body of a new friend. Before they know it, the Marders are being pursued by dark forces in Hollywood studios, the Mob, the newly founded Church of Scientology, facing off against the most evil in a town of sleaze and secrets. In settings familiar but now sinister, Charlie and Margaret find the clock is not only ticking but running out. Someone out there knows what they've uncovered and can't let them leave town alive. Corruption and ambition form a deadly mix in this thrilling sequel to The Hellfire Club"--

Blood and the badge : the mafia, two killer cops, and a scandal that shocked the nation / by Cannell, Michael,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."For the first time in forty years, former New York Times editor Michael Cannell unearths the full story behind two ruthless New York cops who acted as double agents for the Mafia. No episode in NYPD history surpasses the depravities of Louis Eppolito and Stephen Caracappa, two decorated detectives who covertly acted as mafia informants and paid assassins in the Scorsese world of 1980s Brooklyn. For more than ten years, Eppolito and Caracappa moonlighted as the mob's early warning alert system, leaking names of mobsters secretly cooperating with the government and crippling investigations by sharing details of surveillance, phone taps and impending arrests. The Lucchese boss called the two detectives his crystal ball: Whatever detectives knew, the mafia soon learned. Most grievously, Eppolito and Caracappa earned bonuses by staging eight mob hits, pulling the trigger themselves at least once. Incredibly, when evidence of their wrongdoing arose in 1994, FBI officials failed to muster an indictment. The allegations lay dormant for a decade and were only revisited due to relentless follow up by Tommy Dades, a cop determined to break the cold case before his retirement. Eppolito and Caracappa were finally tried and then sentenced to life in prison in 2009, nearly thirty years after their crimes took place. Cannell's Blood and the Badge is based on entirely new research and never-before-released interviews with mobsters themselves, including Sammy "the Bull" Gravano. Eppolito and Caracappa's story is more relevant than ever as police conduct comes under ever-increasing scrutiny"--
