Author Thomas Maier: MAFIA SPIES

PWPL is proud to welcome best-selling author, television producer and Newsday Investigative Reporter Thomas Maier to discuss his new book Mafia Spies: A True Story of Espionage and Mobsters, based on the Never-Before-Released JFK Files.

Mafia Spies is a spy exposé, murder mystery, and shocking true story. In the early 1960s, two top gangsters, Johnny Roselli and Sam Giancana, were hired by the CIA to kill Cuba’s Communist leader, Fidel Castro, only to wind up murdered themselves amidst Congressional hearings and a national debate about the JFK assassination. Who killed Johnny and Sam—and why wasn’t Castro assassinated despite the CIA’s many clandestine efforts?

“Mafia Spies reads like a thriller but it’s all true. I found it gripping from page one. And important.” – Michael Connelly, #1 New York Times bestselling author.
