Synopsis
Crime writer T.J. English (PADDY WHACKED) brings color, life, and a wealth of new research to HAVANA NOCTURNE, the tale of the crime and gambling empire the mafia built in Havana, only to see it fall apart with the rise of Castro. The cast of characters is larger than life, with Meyer Lanksy largest of them all--he was the one who orchestrated the 1946 meeting of 20 U.S. gangsters in the Hotel Nacional of Cuba, and he was the one who brokered the deal with dictator Fulgencia Batista, who agreed to look the other way as the mobsters lined his pockets and their own. This devil's bargain led to Havana becoming the United States' endless party, with cheap flights and ferries carrying the rich and famous to their island playground. English interviews Lanksy's grand-daughter and bodyguard to add a personal touch to his lurid history, and it's a dark thrill to watch the mob fighting tooth and nail against the revolution. HAVANA NOCTURNE was nominated for the 2009 Edgar Award for Best Fact Crime.

Publisher's Note
Draws on previously hidden historical sources and survivor interviews to profile mob-infiltrated Havana in the 1950s and cite the contributions of such figures as Fidel Castro and Che Guevara, in an account that traces the relationships between President Batista and such mafia leaders as Meyer Lansky and Lucky Luciano. 50,000 first printing.

Industry Reviews
"Meyer Lansky, the mobster who brought high-stakes organized crime to Cuba...gets to play the lead in T.J. English's excellent new book, HAVANA NOCTURNE, which traces the mob's Cuban activities, a wild adventure that Lansky initiated, manipulated and rode to the bitter end."
