Better than Friends of Eddie Coyle
Very Technically accurate book that follows a decade long series of armored car robberies by a group of leftover 60s radicals that ends in a bloody massacre in Boston and follows the aftermath and the impact that it has on their families if you like George V Higgins's other books or just like a good crime novel you'll love Outlaws.
