David Lane 
Into the Heart of the Mafia 
A Journey Through the Italian South

Lane shows how globalisation has transformed the Mafia into more than simply a local phenomenon. It describes in painful detail the daily accommodation to Mafia pressure endured by priests, politicians and prosecutors, businessmen, trade unionists and ordinary citizens. At the same time he incorporates a portrait of the South’s long and tumultuous history and powerful flavours to provide a richly coloured portrait of a European region under siege.
