About this ebook
A devious speakeasy owner. A crooked undertaker. A cunning bartender. A psychotic cabbie. A hapless greengrocer. A notorious thug. And one Irishman who came to be known as 'Iron Mike'. Set around New York's Prohibition-era speakeasy scene in the 1930s in what became known as 'the most grotesque chain of events in New York criminal history', The Many Murders of Michael Malloy is the tragic true story of six low-rent, desperate and extraordinarily incompetent murderers and one lonely Irish emigrant of exceptional fortitude and resilience. Poisoned, frozen, knocked down twice – Malloy survived it all, until he didn't. This is the utterly compelling, stranger-than-fiction story of the most infamous Irish murder you've never heard of.
