Connections II. Bob Bottom. 1987.

This book is the second in a special series of Connections by Bob Bottom. All three of Bottom’s previous books on organised crime - The Godfather in Australia,  Without Fear of Favour and Connections - have been best sellers.

As well as having a wide Australian readership, Bob Bottom’s books are listed with the United States Justics Department as offical reference material for American Criminal intelligence agencies.

Connections II gives a disturbing insight into the extraordinary connections between the American mafia and Australian organised crime identities, as well as revealing taped conversations of the Mr Bigs of the drug trade caught in the act while going about their sordid business. This book raises serious questions about the indifference of some authorities to the nexus between organised crime and the vice trade and drug dealing. It also spells out a recipe for tackling corruption.
