Review: Miami Mayhem
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 06 28, 2012
Cross Al Pacino's Scarface with a Robert Ludlum novel and you still wouldn't have a story as jaw-dropping as this. Wright's tale of the alleged Miami underworld hit man who infiltrated the highest levels of the CIA is a phenomenal piece of reporting and storytelling, featuring characters as diverse as Cofer Black, Janet Reno, former Bay of Pigs guerrillas, and Meyer Lansky's stepson. This is an explosive story that names names and uncovers lots of government hijinks. You'll swear you're reading a novel, but, sadly and shockingly, it's all true.
