"Here's a captivating tale of valor and devotion ---to God, to spouse, to country---woven with newly disclosed details of an attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler. A masterful piece of historical detective work!"
Lee Strobel
Author
On "Hitler in the Crosshairs"
"Maurice is one of the best investigative journalists in the nation, and one of the most thorough reporters I have ever met."
Andrew Cohen
Chief Legal Editor and Analyst, CBS News
"In a city full of good stories, Maurice Possley and Rick Kigan have chosen to tell one of the truly great ones. Teh characters are fascinating as they fall through the looking glass into the murky moral wonderland that is Chicago."
Harold Ramis
Film Director & Screenwriter
On "Everybody Pays"
"Kogan and Possley give us the best Chicago crime story since the St. Valentine's Day Massacre."
Bill Kurtis
Award Winning Investigative Reporter, CBS News
On "Everybody Pays"
"This is a finely muscled tale. Kogan and Possley know firsthand the gritty inner workings of American crime and justice."
David Mamet
Pulitzer Prize-Winning Playwright and Filmmaker
On "Everybody Pays"
"This is the real-life story of a mob hit man and how he was brought to justice, principally through the courage of an average guy willing to say, 'I saw what I saw.' It is an amazing tale, beautifully told, and riveting from its opening sentence to the final page."
Scott Turow
Best-Selling Author
On "Everybody Pays"

“A fascinating, disturbing and timely story about the potential for abuse of power by federal prosecutors. Maurice Possley’s book will make you question the legitimacy of our system of justice – and it should.”
John F. Hollway
Associate Dean, Penn Law Executive Director, Quattrone Center for the Fair Administration of Justice
"After reading this book I am speechless. It is incomprehensible to me that this sordid story could have played out in this country. We are supposed to be a country that has checks and balances between the 3 branches of government and indeed within each branch. It is shocking to see that in each case where there were opportunities to right wrongs, the checks and balances failed or were ignored. If a movie had been made with this plot people would have said it was good fiction. Sadly this book is real."
