Synopsis
The Tangled Web tells the dramatic story of detective Richard Cain's criminal career as revealed by his half-brother, Michael. Cain led a double-life one as a well-known cop who led raids that landed on the front pages, and the other as a "made man" in one of Chicago's most notorious mob families. Eventually executed by shotgun, Dick Cain lived and died in a world of bloodshed and violence, leaving behind a story so outlandish that he has even been suspected of being involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Review
“A must read for folks following organized crime in America.”
―Ray Gibson, Chicago Tribune
“Richard Cain embodied the symbiotic relationship of Chicago’s legendary Outfit and the political machine that ran the city. . . . Great stuff for a look at the reality of life in the Mob and a window on how the ‘city that works’ really worked.”
―Booklist
