Of the author's American cycle, this is the only one to describe the implacable workings of the Mafia. Written from Connecticut by Simenon himself in exile, Les Frères Rico narrates the lives of Eddie, Gino and Tony, three brothers who, under the guise of good citizens, engage in a less honorable activity: running the big gambling racket, each at his own level.
The success of this story led to a film adaptation: The Brothers Rico, released in 1957.
Nice copy
