Drugs. Violence. Sex and murder.   By the mid-1980s, the American underworld was a vicious melting pot of powerful criminal tribes. The most feared was the Cuban mob. This organisation of exiles, ruthlessly led by a kingppin named \"battle\", was so cold-blooded it was known on both sides of the law as \"The Corporation\".   Drawing on first-hand accounts and deep research, and with the blistering prose that established him as \"America's top chronicler of organised crime\", T.J. English's The Corporation reveals how a generation of Cuban refugees, racketeers, corrupt cops, hitmen, and their families got caught up in a very American saga of empire building, criminal enterprise and revolution.   Now to be adapted into a film, with Benicio Del Toro to star.  PRAISE FOR THE CORPORATION  \"Fascinating reading for true-crime buffs.\" Kirkus Review  \"It's a gripping, blood-soaked story, rich in drama and suspense; if it were a novel, you might expect to see Don Winslow's name attached to it. Fans of true crime, especially those with a hankering for epic-sized stories, should flock to this book.\" Booklist  \"A first-rate saga of crime and corruption that is further testament to the author's reputation among the nation's most accomplished writers.\" Library Journal (starred review)","brand":"Book Grocer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41187364995226,"sku":"9781760554279","price":5.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/1625\/7690\/products\/the-corporation.jpg?v=1635739430","url":"https:\/\/castlebooks.com.au\/products\/9781760554279-the-corporation","provider":"Castlebooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
