Discover the riveting journey of Frank Nitti, the notorious underworld figure who rose from the shadows of poverty in Brooklyn to the echelons of Chicago's mob hierarchy. Dubbed "The Enforcer," Nitti was a key architect behind the ruthless efficiency of Al Capone's empire, feared and revered for his cold, calculated approach to the mob's brutal business. After Capone's fall due to tax evasion, Nitti took the reins, expanding their illicit operations and steering the Chicago Outfit through the tumultuous Prohibition era. Unlike his predecessor, Nitti shunned the spotlight, preferring the quiet maneuvering that earned him a formidable reputation as both a strategist and a survivor in the violent world of organized crime. His story is a stark portrayal of ambition, power, and the American underworld.
