Description: The shocking and unprecedented true story of how an FBI agent infiltrated one of the most notorious Mafia families in the country perfect for fans of Wiseguy The Pretender and American Radical. Petey Chops wasn t kicking up. And if he didn t start soon he was going to get whacked. So begins the extraordinary true story of an undercover FBI agent's years - long investigation of the Gambinos resulting in a string of arrests that crippled the organized crime family. But long before Joaquin Jack Garcia found himself wearing a wire with some of the Mafia's top capos he was one of the FBI's unlikeliest recruits. A Cuban - born American Jack graduated from Quantico standing six - foot - four and weighing 300 pounds which soon proved to be an asset as the FBI looked to place agents undercover with drug smugglers counterfeiters and even killers. Using a series of carefully created aliases Jack insinuated himself in the criminal world from the Badlands of Philadelphia where he was a gregarious money launderer to the streets of Miami where an undercover Garcia moved stolen and illicit goods and brought down dirty cops. But his biggest opportunity came when he infiltrated the shadowy world of La Cosa Nostra but how would the Cuban American convince wiseguys that he was one of their own? For the first time the FBI created a special mob school for Jack teaching him how to eat talk and think like a wiseguy. And it wasn t long before the freshly minted Jack Falcone found himself under the wing of one of the Gambinos old school capos Greg De Palma. De Palma who cared for an ailing John Gotti in prison introduced Falcone to his world of shakedowns beatings and envelopes of cash never suspecting that one of his trusted crew members was a federal agent. A page - turning account of the struggle between law enforcement and organized crime that will rank with such classic stories as Donnie Brasco Serpico and Wiseguy Making Jack Falcone is an unforgettable trip into America's underworld through the eyes of a highly decorated FBI veteran.
