About this ebook

Chris Paciello seemed to have it all. With heartthrob good looks and an A-list roster of clients and friends, he was a South Beach businessman/playboy whose local fame was reaching new heights—until his "wise guy" past came crashing down upon him.

When some of Chris's former 'fellas were arrested, they ratted him out to the government. One case in particular—a botched robbery that turned deadly—was a time bomb that would blow the cushy new world Chris created for himself to bits...and propel him straight back to New York City to face justice.

Jimmy Calandra your pathetic excuse of existence,and desperation for notoriety is nothing more then amusing to say the least. There is not a publishing house in North America with any credentials that would be interested in your life story.I find it appalling that you continue to attach your name and view yourself as a "Stand Up" kind of guy. Please refrain from these degrading,humiliating attempts to sell yourself. Everyone who has crossed paths with you can confirm you are nothing more then a GOOF with a remedial education. I have now wasted 5 min of my life in writing this in which I can never get back. This is 5 min more then any other individual will ever allow you to take up. We will all consider this your 5 min of fame. Karen Archer

Extremely well written. It comes too glorify his actions. In the end we reap what we sow! Growing up in Brooklyn you heard about these fabled tales. Let's see the other side of the tales from the other defendants recount if one gets published!

From what I read of the book, it's informative and full of suspense. However, it is hard to read. Jack Cherin was my cousin, and his death still haunts my family. Joey Calco deserved a much more harsh punishment. Great book, though. Definitely an interesting read.
