Killing the Mob: The Fight Against Organized Crime in America
Killing the Mob is the tenth book in Bill O’Reilly’s #1 New York Times bestselling series of popular narrative histories, with sales of nearly 18 million copies worldwide, and over 320 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list.
“The Dillinger Gang,” as they are known, plans heists with great sophistication, utilizing detailed getaway maps and high-horsepower vehicles to outrun law enforcement. They also brandish Thompson submachine guns. Each man plays a specific role in the robberies, whether as a driver, lookout, or vault man, but it is the self-assured Dillinger who strides into a bank, opens a leather case containing his Thompson, and yells, “This is a stickup,” to the tellers and bank customers.

Dillinger makes no attempt to hide his handsome face, and as the numbers of robberies mount between June 21, 1933, and January 15, 1934, his legend grows.
It is bad luck that gets Dillinger and his band captured in Tucson. Two of the men are staying at the Hotel Congress when a broken furnace leads to a fire, forcing an evacuation of all rooms.
Rather than let their belongings burn, gang members Russell Clark and Charles Makley bribe firefighters to climb back up the ladders to retrieve their luggage. Tucson is a small town with a population of just over thirty thousand. The suspicious behavior of these strangers catches the attention of firefighter William Benedict, who identifies Makley and Clark from a photo he remembers in True Detective magazine. Benedict then notifies the Tucson police, and over the course of the next four days the gang is carefully tracked and eventually captured.
