Summary
Summary
Winner of an AudioFile Earphones Award
In the late 1970s, The Outfit, led by Tony Accardo, has the entire city of Chicago in its grip. When the bracelet he bought his wife is stolen in a jewelry heist, Tony has his loyal soldier Nicky Passero track it down—by whatever means necessary. What Accardo doesn't know: Nicky has a secret which has made his life impossible and has put him in the pocket of the FBI.
Based on the true story of Tony Accardo, the longest‑reigning mob capo in history, Gangland is a Shakespearean drama of integrity, lost honor, and revenge. Gritty and action‑packed, it is Chuck Hogan's most thrilling novel yet.
2023 Edgar Award Nominee for Best Novel and a New York Times Best Crime Novel of 2022
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“Hogan creates a masterly portrait of men in turmoil, of allegiances forged and broken, and of loyalty tested…Gangland is also, like the best mob books and movies, an exploration of masculinity at its most toxic and pernicious." —New York Times Book Review
“Justin Price does an incredible job performing this grisly thriller featuring a real-life mob leader…In a story in which no one is a hero, Price applies the slightest bit of sympathetic nuance to his portrayal of Nicky Passero, the hit man…Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.” —AudioFile
“Colorful, engaging, and bloody; a richly satisfying crime story and character study.” —Kirkus Reviews
