Chicago Hitman, A Confession

Who was the real target in February 1933? President-elect Franklin Delano Roosevelt, as most people at the time assumed? Or the Chicago Mayor, Anton J Cermak? Two months earlier, Cermak’s “hoodlum squad” shot and nearly killed Al Capone’s successor, Frank “The Enforcer” Nitto/i. Was the Miami hit a vendetta? Chicago Hitman is the alleged “confession” of Augusto (not his real name), who for over a decade laundered millions of dollars of the Syndicate’s illegal gains into legitimate properties and businesses across the city and beyond. When Nitto/i was almost killed, he turned to Augusto, a fellow secretly sworn member of the Mafia/Camorra and one of the people he totally trusted, to organize a hit squad to even the score. Augusto’s “confession” is supported by authentic newspaper quotes of the day by on-the-scene witnesses. Who was the real target, Roosevelt or Nitto/i? The reader of this exciting work of “historical fiction” must decide.
