<p>Writer Kevin Weeks was top Lieutenant to James 'Whitey' Bulger, head of the South Boston Irish Mob, who was on the run for more than 16 years, wanted for 19 murders.  On the FBI Most Wanted list, Whitey was second only to Osama bin Laden with a two million dollar reward on his head for information leading to his capture. On June 22, 2011, Whitey was finally captured in Santa Monica, California.  This book contains a fascinating account of how Whitey and his companion Catherine Greig could well have spent those 16 years.  A story of murder, friendship and loyalty within the mob, WHERE'S WHITEY depicts many situations that Weeks could have omitted from BRUTAL. While the story is certainly fiction, its insider knowledge makes it all the more intriguing. When Joey Donahue is released from prison after serving six years for racketeering and crimes committed as deputy to the infamous South Boston Irish Mob boss and psychopathic murderer James 'Whitey' Bulger, he is determined to stay clear of the life of crime that has supported him for the past twenty-five years. After a year of trying unsuccessfully to find a job due to his notorious association with Bulger, Joey finally surrenders to the temptation of a friend's offer to join him in a fast score: a simple robbery of a drug dealer that should pay the bills until he finds a viable job. The robbery turns out to be a sting operation set up by the FBI for the express purpose of forcing Joey to cooperate in the frustratingly unsuccessful search for his onetime mentor. It is speculated that Bulger is also the inspiration for the ruthless crime kingpin Francis 'Frank' Costello, played by Jack Nicholson in Martin Scorsese's Academy Award-winning film The Departed (2006).</p>
