Title: Homicide Is My Business: Luigi the Zip: A Hitman’s Quest For Honor Author: Jerry Schmetterer, Michael Vecchione Narrator: Stephen Bel Davies Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 41 minutes Release date: November 15, 2022 Genres: Law & Politics Publisher's Summary: The story of Luigi Ronsisvalle is an intimate look at the life of a professional killer. It is, in some ways, the story of all workingmen and women with ambition who never achieve their ultimate goal. But what makes Luigi unique is that, for him to achieve his goal, people had to die. His ambition, from when he was twelve years old, was to be a made man in the Mafia. He once told a presidential commission, 'American child falls in love with baseball, I fall in love with Mafia.' Coauthor Michael Vecchione spent months interviewing the hitman about his life in the Sicilian and American Mafia, finally becoming his confidant. Those days, weeks, and months together brought Luigi to realize that, despite the concept of omertà—the code of silence ingrained in him from an early age—the road to a truly honorable life meant turning on those he once admired. Luigi had done everything asked of him by his Mafia bosses. This included the murder of thirteen people. But unlike other hitmen, Luigi was denied the Mafia recognition he felt he deserved. Drawing on personal files, handwritten notes, and official sources, this book attempts to explain his complicated life. Contains mature themes.
