Mobsters in the Mansion is Scott Siegler’s sharp, unsentimental collection of stories on a prodigal son’s journey from quiet Midwestern affluence to the screaming offices of California’s entertainment business, settling finally in an historic New England enclave. In a foreword by David Chase, the creator of The Sopranos calls Siegler fearless, funny and “so knowledgeable, so true,” praising the humanity and curiosity that drench each page. These are stories about power and pretense, faith and fraud — mobsters of one kind or another — observed with an artist’s eye and an insider’s candor.
