Book Description
Resurrection to Retribution describes the journey of four brave members of an elite military unit in the dwindling days of the Vietnam War. They were considered disposable pawns in a sanctioned scheme to move a corrupt foreign politician into the United States of America and reestablish his criminal empire. But thanks to the efforts of a colonel nicknamed Mom, they survived. And through fate, they were reunited, each with their own physical and mental baggage. Now they represent a loose end to the government agency that directed the operation. Hunted by their own country, they work to bring the scheme of the past to light. With the help of friends and new supporters, they use their skills both from the past and newly developed to work toward the truth. The experience has forged them into a strong unit, and they stand ready to support anyone that needs their unique skills to overcome their problems. Not as young as they once were, what they lack in youth they overcome with experience and skill. Their journey has just begun and looks to take them in many directions, all fighting for the powerless.

Whitey
Author: Dick Lehr
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307986543
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
From the bestselling authors of Black Mass comes the definitive biography of Whitey Bulger, the most brutal and sadistic crime boss since Al Capone. Drawing on a trove of sealed files and previously classified material, Whitey digs deep into the mind of James J. “Whitey” Bulger, the crime boss and killer who brought the FBI to its knees. He is an American original --a psychopath who fostered a following with a frightening mix of terror, deadly intimidation and the deft touch of a politician who often helped a family in need meet their monthly rent. But the history shows that despite the early false myths portraying him as a Robin Hood figure, Whitey was a supreme narcissist, and everything--every interaction with family and his politician brother Bill Bulger, with underworld cohorts, with law enforcement, with his South Boston neighbors, and with his victims--was always about him. In an Irish-American neighborhood where loyalty has always been rule one, the Bulger brand was loyalty to oneself. Whitey deconstructs Bulger's insatiable hunger for power and control. Building on their years of reporting and uncovering new Bulger family records, letters and prison files, Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neill examine and reveal the factors and forces that created the monster. It's a deeply rendered portrait of evil that spans nearly a century, taking Whitey from the streets of his boyhood Southie in the 1940s to his cell in Alcatraz in the 1950s to his cunning, corrupt pact with the FBI in the 1970s and, finally, to Santa Monica, California where for fifteen years he was hiding in plain sight as one of the FBI's Ten Most Wanted. In a lifetime of crime and murder that ended with his arrest in June 2011, Whitey Bulger became one of the most powerful and deadly crime bosses of the twentieth century. This is his story.
