Growing up in a household as generic as Midwestern Jews get, writer Eric Konigsberg wished there was something different about his family, something exotic and mysterious, even shocking. When he was sent off to boarding school, he learned that there was: His great-uncle Harold, in prison in upstate New York, was a legendary Mafia enforcer, suspected by the FBI of upwards of twenty murders. Konigsberg uncovers a shameful, long-hidden family secret.
