The hunt for Scarface / by Walker, Lane,author.(CARDINAL)885875;
"A thunderous sound echoed through the stormy Nebraska countryside. The hair on the backs of their necks stood up. But it wasn't lightning. For twins Kent and Kyle Morris, there was only one creature who could make such a loud noise--it was Scarface! When they set out on an adventure to discover the secrets of the huge thunder chicken and finally bag him, another surprising opportunity arose that could change the fortunes of their family forever. Chasing the old turkey was put on hold while they began hunting for something even more exciting--hidden treasure! The map they found on their property could lead them to the untold riches left there by the French in the early days of our country. But they weren't the only ones hunting for the treasure. Someone else was willing to do whatever it took to claim the prize. When the next violent storm passed through, would the twins be the first to unlock the mystery of the treasure chest? Would Kent and Kyle find the answers they sought or would more trouble come their way? Would old Scarface win in the end or would they finally learn his secrets?"--Amazon.com.700LAccelerated Reader AR

Scarface and the untouchable : Al Capone, Eliot Ness, and the battle for Chicago / by Collins, Max Allan,author.(CARDINAL)354104; Schwartz, A. Brad(Austin Bradley),author.(CARDINAL)610458;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 565-674) and index.In 1929, thirty-year-old gangster Al Capone ruled both Chicago's underworld and its corrupt government. To a public who scorned Prohibition, "Scarface" became a local hero and national celebrity. But after the brutal St. Valentine's Day Massacre transformed Capone into "Public Enemy Number One," the federal government found an unlikely new hero in a twenty-seven-year-old Prohibition agent named Eliot Ness. Chosen to head the legendary law enforcement team known as "The Untouchables," Ness set his sights on crippling Capone's criminal empire. Today, no underworld figure is more iconic than Al Capone and no lawman as renowned as Eliot Ness. Yet in 2016 the Chicago Tribune wrote, "Al Capone still awaits the biographer who can fully untangle, and balance, the complexities of his life," while revisionist historians have continued to misrepresent Ness and his remarkable career. Enter Max Allan Collins and A. Brad Schwartz, a unique and vibrant writing team combining the narrative skill of a master novelist with the scholarly rigor of a trained historian. Collins is the New York Times bestselling author of the gangster classic "Road to Perdition." Schwartz is a rising-star historian whose work anticipated the fake-news phenomenon. Scarface and the Untouchable draws upon decades of primary source research-including the personal papers of Ness and his associates, newly released federal files, and long-forgotten crime magazines containing interviews with the gangsters and G-men themselves. Collins and Schwartz have recaptured a bygone bullet-ridden era while uncovering the previously unrevealed truth behind Scarface's downfall. Together they have crafted the definitive work on Capone, Ness, and the battle for Chicago.
