I enjoyed it. Showed how Scarpa was more evil than I even thought he was. One thing to be prepared for is that it is more investigative journalism than someone telling a story. A lot of pouring over old documents.

For sure. It's kind of in a league of it's own IMO. But all the analysis of the documents is very interesting as is Scarpa's story in general. Just don't go into it expecting a book like Leonetti's or D'Arco's. I might compare it to The Sixth Family if anything.
