Conflicting Loyalties (book review)
Author: Aiden Gabor
Synopsis
When Aiden Gabor was still a teenager, he was approached by Department of Justice officers who offered him a choice: either become an undercover agent or spend the rest of his life behind bars for racketeering, embezzlement, extortion, and conspiracy to commit murder.
A sharp, honest memoir, Conflicting Loyalties is broken down into three parts: the harrowing life of an outsider mob soldier from La Familia; the death-defying, wary existence of an informant who brings down corrupt law enforcement agencies and politicians from within; and the unexpected, late-life finding of peace through the Baha’i faith while dealing with an ALS diagnosis.
In the searing story Conflicting Loyalties, a man risks his life to save it, evading his destiny as he searches for a family, a father, and a sense of himself. It’s intended for fans of Joe Pistone’s classic Donnie Brasco and Gianni Russo’s Hollywood Godfather, as well as anyone intrigued by The mafia life, political and police corruption, and finding serenity after a disorderly world.
Review
A must-read for true crime aficionados especially if you are searching for in-depth information about the Mafia. The book may explore themes of betrayal, fear, and the search for truth.
Secrets surface, the past unravels, and a shocking twist awaits: the author embraces the very darkness he seeks to expose.
Packed with action and emotion, the book was impossible to put down. The writing was engaging and easy to follow, making it a truly enjoyable read.
