I grew up in the Old Colony housing project in South Boston and became partners with James Whitey Bulger, who I always called Jimmy. Jimmy and I, we were unstoppable. I went away for five and a half years. I was brutally honest on the witness stand, and this book is brutally honest, too; the brutal truth that was never before told.
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 before his capture on June 22, 2011. Hunted Down is a story of murder, friendship and loyalty within the mob. It includes additional information and stories that Weeks omitted from his memoir, Brutal: The Untold Story of My Life Inside Whitey Bulger's Irish Mob. While Hunted Down is fiction, its insider knowledge makes it all the more intriguing and depicts an exciting, realistic story of the FBI's global hunt and eventual capture of Whitey Bulgerand his companion of Catherine Greig."
