La chica de la mafia

The young Arlyne Brickman only needed a doctored raffle ticket to enter the New York underworld. Her longing to become the new Virginia Hill, the well-known girlfriend of gangster Bugsy Siegel, pushed her to rub shoulders with the "smart guys," the Italian mobsters who controlled the Lower East Side neighborhood. And she, who dreamed of a life full of glamor and emotion, stuck to them. Messengers, boxers, smugglers and hitmen crossed her path until two big shots -John Gotti and Anthony Scarpati- opened the doors of New York's most famous mafia families: the Gambinos and the Colombos. And Arlyne, who because she was a woman did not have good cards in that game, made the most of the situation.
