Summary:
Goldsmith revered his stepfather, longtime Jimmy Hoffa associate Chuckie O'Brien. But as he grew older and pursued a career in law and government, he came to doubt and distance himself from the man long suspected by the FBI of perpetrating Hoffa's disappearance on behalf of the mob. Serving as assistant attorney general in the George W. Bush administration, Goldsmith began to reconsider his stepfather, and to understand Hoffa's true legacy. He reunited with the stepfather he'd disowned and then set out to unravel one of the twentieth century;s most persistent mysteries - and Chuckie's role in it--Provided by publisher.
