No Questions Asked: The Secret Life of Women in the Mob - Hardcover

In this eye-opening expose of the women at the deadly heart of the Mafia, reporter Claire Longrigg uncovers a fascinating subculture of American females - and their strategies for survival. Some are irresistibly attracted to dangerous men, others take part in criminal activities alongside their men by helping to conceal their husbands' income, directing drug rings, and even running guns. Longrigg persuaded these women to break the omerta, the code of silence, with astonishing results. Based on in-depth interviews with the mothers, daughters, wives, sisters, and girlfriends of notorious mobsters, Longrigg offers an unprecedented glimpse into a fiercely private and frightening world.
