Theresa Ferrara and the Lucchese crime family

Set against 1970s New York, Natalie Fogel’s true-crime account examines Theresa Ferrara’s reported involvement in the Lucchese family’s criminal activity. The book places her story within an era of organized crime, calculated murders and street conflicts, while keeping the central uncertainty in view: Ferrara’s case remains officially unsolved. Its subject is both an individual caught up in that world and the consequences of a crime network seeking to protect its interests. The description presents Ferrara’s fate as a tragedy, but does not resolve the case.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • True-crime readers interested in organized crime in 1970s New York
  • Readers seeking accounts of missing-person cases that remain unsolved

Book overview

New York in the 1970's was certainly one of the most crime driven cities in the world. The Lucchese family was one of "The Five" families that dominated the organized crime scene in this era. In fact, this family still holds great power today. Becoming involved with this family was never a matter of "if" you would run into problems, but rather "when". Through countless, calculated murders, crimes, and street wars, this family soon came to be feared by everyone that wasn't "made" or an "associate." Ultimately, the story of Theresa Ferrara is officially unsolved. What is fact and proven true is that Ferrara was involved and a major pawn in much of the Lucchese crime activity in the 70's. Her demise is one of great tragedy and a picture of what lengths the Lucchese family would go to in order to protect its goals.
