The Murder of Mary Falzone

A Shocking True Crime Story

Brooklyn, 1929. During the joy and bustle of the Christmas season, a mysterious package arrives at the Falzone home. Moments later, an explosion rips through the apartment—killing three innocent children: Mary, Philip, and Rose Falzone.

Who would send a bomb disguised as a holiday gift? And why target a working-class family?

In this gripping true crime investigation, Rod Kackley unearths the dark secrets behind one of New York’s most horrifying unsolved crimes. As police navigate the shadows of 1920s Brooklyn—where organized crime thrives and silence is bought—suspects emerge, but answers remain elusive.

The Murder of Mary Falzone takes readers deep into a community shattered by loss, and a city on edge. This is not just the story of a bombing—it’s a haunting portrait of grief, justice, and the violent grip of the criminal underworld.

Perfect for readers of The Black Dahlia, The Ghosts of Eden Park, or The Mad Sculptor—this true crime tale will keep you reading late into the night.

Meh.

The virtual voice is pretty bad in this one. The story overly dramatic. More about inflammatory language than actual story.
