Milano, quando vuol cambiare, dimentica il passato. Quartieri che oggi sembrano di grido, pochi decenni fa erano fatiscenti e abitati da gente umile: sono stati sventrati, ripensati, ri-abitati. Quando ci sono soldi, a Milano, tutto cambia forma. Si cerca l'attuale, per viverlo al meglio. Si sono perse tradizioni, volti, si è perso pure il dialetto. Milano Bandita racconta i personaggi del crimine che hanno segnato una città che non esiste più. La ritrovi nelle fotografie d'epoca. In qualche libro, in qualche film. Personaggi che sono stati degli eroi e dei criminali.

Mardi 11 septembre 2001. 6 h 30. Il fait encore sombre quand le président des États-Unis, en tenue de jogging, court en foulées rapides au milieu des bougainvilliers, entouré d'agents secrets qui lui éclairent le chemin. L'aube se lève doucement sur la Floride... 23 h 08. Pieds nus, en short, son chien dans les bras, suivi de sa femme et de son chat, George W. Bush dévale les escaliers de la Maison-Blanche vers le bunker souterrain, sous le regard inquiet de ses gardes du corps. C'est la dernière alerte de cette terrible journée.

The city was ablaze with nightly fires, sirens wailing through the streets, and people too afraid to sleep.

Barboza’s legacy, buried for years thanks to the murders or deaths of its participants, is finally coming to light and being told in its unvarnished brutality by one of America’s most respected true crime writers.

Here's what we now know: John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas by Mafia contract killers hired by Louisiana mob boss Carlos Marcello. Kennedy was killed in that city because it was the only place in the country where a crime of that magnitude could be committed without fear of punishment. Long-time local district attorney Henry Wade, an LBJ crony who would have sole jurisdiction over the prosecution of those responsible, had been corrupted by the local Civello crime family. Lyndon B. Johnson, while a U.S. senator during the 1950s, had accepted bribes from the same mobsters so that they could avoid deportation.
