"Vivid and compelling.... Colorful mafia characters are a big draw, and Eppolito's strange, conflicted journey as the son of both a gangster and a cop is particularly intriguing.... Oldham's personal insight, and his keen ability to express it, makes Lawson's skillful account truly riveting."
-- Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The Brotherhoods is a great story brilliantly told."
-- Nicholas Pileggi, author of Wiseguy

"Absorbing...An important and well-told story."
-- Los Angeles Times

"The authors do a stellar job... They are adept at conjuring organized crime's inbred world of social clubs and row houses... Rarely have Mafiosi seemed like such losers as they do here."
-- New York Times

Charles Foran's lively account tells the story of how the manuscript for "The Brotherhoods" was subpoenaed by the U.S. District Court.
