The Tangled Web: The Life and Death of Richard Cain - Chicago Cop and Mafia Hitman

The Tangled Web tells the dramatic story of detective Richard Cain's criminal career as revealed by his half-brother, Michael. Cain led a double-life—one as a well-known cop who led raids that landed on the front pages, and the other as a "made man" in one of Chicago's most notorious mob families. Eventually executed by shotgun, Dick Cain lived and died in a world of bloodshed and violence, leaving behind a story so outlandish that he has even been suspected of being involved in the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Michael J. Cain researched the story of his half-brother Richard with the help of federal agencies, local police departments, and sources on the street from Chicago to Washington, DC. A native of Michigan, now living in Georgia, Michael is currently working on his fifth book, a novel which explores the world of Army Special Operations in wartime.
Jack Clarke was a legendary Chicago private investigator who worked for Mayor Richard J. Daley and several former Illinois governors.
