In Deal with the Devil, five-time Emmy winning investigative reporter Peter Lance draws on three decades of once secret FBI files to tell the definitive story of Greg Scarpa Sr., a.k.a. the Grim Reaper, a Mafia capo who stopped counting after fifty murders, while secretly betraying the Colombo crime family as a Top Echelon informant for the Bureau.

In Deal with the Devil, five-time Emmy winning investigative reporter Peter Lance draws on three decades of once secret FBI files to tell the definitive story of Greg Scarpa Sr., a.k.a. the Grim Reaper, a Mafia capo who stopped counting after fifty murders, while secretly betraying the Colombo crime family as a Top Echelon informant for the Bureau. Lance traces Scarpa's shadowy relationship with the FBI all the way back to 1960, when his debriefings went straight to J. Edgar Hoover. In forty-two years of murder and racketeering, Scarpa served only thirty days in jail thanks to his secret relationship with the Feds. In 2007, his last control agent, Lin DeVecchio, was himself indicted on four counts of murder, in a case Brooklyn D.A. Charles Hynes called the most stunning example of official corruption...I have ever seen. After the case's abrupt dismissal, Lance started peeling back the layers on what defense attorneys called Scarpa's unholy alliance with the FBI. Through exclusive interviews with Greg Scarpa Jr., former Lucchese boss Anthony Gaspipe Casso, among others, as well as more than 1,150 pages of once secret files, Lance traces links between the Scarpa case, the infamous Mafia Cops case, and more. With the same astounding capacity for penetrating criminal networks that marked Lance's previous books, 1000 Years for Revenge, Cover Up, and Triple Cross, Deal with the Devil is a page-turning work of investigative journalism that reads like a Scorsese film.
