Praise for Excellent Cadavers

A fascinating and horrifying book

Denis Mack Smith, New York Times

As good as non-fiction books get: it is crammed with detail and analysis, but reads like a novel

Marc Babej, Guardian

The very best on the modern mafia - brilliantly and thoughtfully telling a complex and messy tale... The characterisation and the twists of the plot have the deft touch of a novelist
