An elite homicide investigation unit takes on one of the most savage and destructive gangs in New York City history in this gritty true-crime narrative.
The investigation into the late-night murder of a college student on the West Side Highway leads to the Wild Cowboys, a group of young men who for years terrorized Upper Manhattan and the Bronx while running a $30,000-a-day drug business. What follows is a tale of dogged pursuit that offers a fascinating inside look at the workings of a complex police investigation, and a satisfying account of how a city took back its streets.“Chilling in its penetrating detail.”–New York Daily News
“Compelling and, at times, disturbing.... With each turn of the page, Gangbusters draws you into a dangerous world.”–Former New York City Police Commissioner William J. Bratton, in The New York Observer
“Plenty of nail-biting moments.... Free of melodrama, Gangbusters is solid cops-and-robbers stuff.”–The New York Post
Michael Stone was for many years an investigative reporter for New York magazine. He lives in New York City.
