Sample Book Insights:

#1 When Jimmy heard the judge pronounce his sentence, he felt like his life was being taken away. It was exactly the term that prosecutor Larry Beaumont had recommended, and when he went before the bench to make a presentencing statement, he told the judge that he knew he did something wrong, but not to ruin his whole life.

#2 Big Jim was a giant of a man, and he had the charisma to match. He had the macho magnetism that drew both men and women. He married one of those women, a raven-haired beauty named Lynn Brower, in 1956. Their son, Jimmy, was born in 1963.

#3 When he was fifteen, Jimmy began having sex with multiple girls. He was always in demand for protection as well as companionship at the wild parties hosted by Kankakee’s wealthiest kids.

#4 As high school students kept approaching Jimmy for dope, he started to wonder if it would be such a bad thing to oblige them. He began dealing drugs to pay off his rich friends, and it quickly became his life’s ambition to build a sales network.
