"The Last Testament of Lucky Luciano" was a fraud. It has been thoroughly investigated and debunked. The FBI came to that conclusion, then New York Times reporter Nicholas Gage, and many others. The most thorough examination was in Informer magazine:

None. I have contemporary newspaper accounts and her inquest record and his name never came up once. That was something that was made up many years later in the book "Hot Toddy."
