Sheeran learned to kill in the US Army, where he saw an astonishing 411 days of active combat during World War 2. After returning home he became a hustler and a hit man, working for legenday crime boss Russell Bufalino. Eventually Sheeran would rise to a position of such prominence that he was named as one of only two non-Italians on a list of the twenty-six most wanted Mob figures. When Bufalino ordered Sheeran to kill Hoffa, the Irishman did the deed, knowing that if he refused, he would have been killed himself. Sheeran's important and fascinating story includes brand new information on other famous murders, and provides rare insight into an infamous chapter in US and Mafia history.
This is a page turner that is destined to become a true-crime classic, and is the basis for the 2019 film The Irishman, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert de Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci, Harvey Keitel, Anna Paquin.
Summary | The incredible true story of the death of Jimmy Hoffa, the most famous hit in Mafia history. Now a major motion picture. |
