Summary:
"For the first time, Boston reporters Casey Sherman and Dave Wedge draw on exclusive interviews and exhaustive investigative reportage to tell the complete
story
of
Whitey
Bulger, one of the
most
notorious
crime
bosses in American history--alongside Al "Scarface" Capone and Vito Genovese--and a longtime FBI informant. The leader of Boston's Winter Hill Gang and #1 on the FBI'
s
Most
Wanted
list, Bulger was indicted for nineteen counts of murder, racketeering, narcotics distribution, and extortion. But it was his sixteen-year flight from justice on the eve of his arrest that made him a legend and exposed deep corruption within the FBI. While other accounts have examined Bulger'
s
crimes, this chronicle tells the
story
of his life on the run, his
capture
, and his eventual murder
inside
one of
America
's
most
dangerous prisons--"Misery Mountain"--in 2018. Interweaving the perspectives of Bulger, his family and cohorts, and law enforcement,
Hunting
Whitey
explains how this dangerous criminal evaded
capture
for nearly two decades and shines a spotlight on the dedicated detectives, federal agents, and prosecutors involved in bringing him to justice. It is also a detailed portrait of both Bulger'
s
trial and his time in prison--including shocking new details about his death at Misery Mountain less than twenty-four hours after his arrival. Granted access to exclusive prison letters and interviews with dozens of people connected to the case on both sides, Sherman and Wedge offer a trove of new stories and create an incomparable portrait of one of the
most
infamous criminals in American history.
