A Conversation with Lou Berney
This week on Crime Wave: It’s our 100th episode and award-winning novelist Lou Berney returns with CROOKS, the story of the Mercurio crime family—Buddy, a low-level mob wise guy, his wife Lillian, a charming pickpocket, and their five children. CROOKS opens in 1960s Las Vegas and then spans decades and continents as the children grow—and grapple, in their own ways, with the family’s powerful criminal legacy. Berney’s razor-sharp storytelling delivers a propulsive and deeply human crime novel that balances tension with heart.
