by Scott M. Hoffman
Inside by Scott M.

The Outfit has been involved in a wide variety of criminal activities including gambling, loan-sharking, prostitution, drug trafficking, money laundering, extortion, labor racketeering, adult and child pornography, political corruption, and murder. The individuals and events in Inside are composites of real people and real events.
Inside begins in 1956 with Jimmy Williams, a 47-year-old man with two families¿his wife and two children and the Outfit.
