I didn't even read the book when I found out it was by Philip Carlo. He's the worst OC writer in history.

I believe Kuk was an associate for the Gambinos, but not a hired contract killer for DeMeo. That's ridiculous that DeMeo would have to pay anyone to commit murders when he had the Gemini Twins and Borelli under him. If he did hits for anyone it would be DB who was a capo without a crew. He probably did kill many people, but it had nothing to do with the mob.
