Conflicting Loyalties

A memoir of a double life as a Mafia enforcer and a DOJ informant taking down corrupt cops and politicians. Aiden Gabor was still a teenager when Department of Justice agents approached him with an ultimatum: spend his life in prison for racketeering, embezzlement, extortion, and conspiracy to commit murder, or become an undercover agent. Conflicting Loyalties is a sharp, honest memoir in three parts: the bloody life of a mob soldier from outside la famiglia; the death-defying, paranoid existence of an informant bringing down corrupt politicians and police departments from the inside; and unexpectedly finding peace late in life through the Baha'i faith while coping with an ALS diagnosis. Conflicting Loyalties is a visceral tale of a man who gambles with his own life in order to save it, dodging his fate while searching for an identity, a father, and a family. It is for readers of Gianni Russo's Hollywood Godfather, Joe Pistone's classic Donnie Brasco, and anyone interested in mob life, police and political corruption, and finding peace after a life of violence.
