Description

En 1912 Al Capone n’a que 13 ans, mais il sait déjà une chose, il ne sera pas coiffeur comme son père ! Non, il sera riche et redouté. Pour cela, il est prêt à travailler dur et à cogner dur aussi. Les trottoirs miséreux de Brooklyn sont la meilleure des écoles. Il y rencontre Johnny Torrio, le célèbre gangster, qui plus tard lui léguera son empire de Chicago. Son ascension est inexorable. Il devient Roi. Roi de la pègre et du crime. Chapeaux mous, mitraillettes Thompson, chevalières en diamants ne sont que les insignes sinistres de ce terrible pouvoir qui affecte aussi bien l’univers des gangs que les milieux de la politique et de l’administration. Ce sont les étapes de ce règne inquiétant que retrace ici Jean-François Ménard. Un roman policier saisissant qui met en scène cette période terrifiante de l’histoire du crime : l’époque de la prohibition.
