Publisher's Note A groundbreaking account of the decline of Naples under the rule of the Camorra describes how this murderous organized crime network and its international associates have gained control of the Neapolitan region in such areas as construction, high fashion, illegal drug trafficking, and toxic waste disposal and its influence on every aspect of Neopolitan life. Reprint. 25,000 first printing.
Industry Reviews "Saviano's strongly written book deserves the attention it has been getting....Saviano gives a telling account of the ways in which organized crime in Southern Italy fits into a world system of contraband goods....All of this adds up to an international underground economy that has implications far beyond its local boundaries."
