Overview
Bestselling author Douglas Century reveals the untold story of the epic rise and fall of Boris Nayfeld, also known as Biba, one of the most notorious Russian mob bosses of our era.
Boris Nayfeld, a.k.a. āBiba,ā is the last living boss of the old-school Russian mob in America, and heās survived to tell it all. Filled with sex, drugs, and murder, Bibaās story is a mind-boggling journey that took him from petty street crime in the USSR to billion-dollar embezzlement in America.
Born in Soviet-era Belarus, abandoned by his parents in infancy, Bibaās brutal upbringing left him hungry for moreāmore power, control, and money. Taking advantage of the rampant corruption in the Soviet Union, Bibaās teenage hooliganism quickly turned into bolder āblack cashā rackets, making him, by Soviet standards, a very rich young man. When authorities took notice and threatened him with āthe supreme measureāā execution by firing squadāhe managed to get out of the USSR just in time.
Within months of landing in America, his intimidating presence and street smarts quickly made him legendary in the Soviet Ć©migrĆ© community of Brighton Beach, Brooklyn, and launched him to the top of New Yorkās Russian Jewish mob, one of the worldās most inventive, powerful and violent criminal organizations. After decades as a globe-trotting boss, and three stints in U.S. federal prisons he remains unbroken and unrepentant, even as his entire life has unraveled around him.
Now seventy-four years old, Biba is a lion in winter. Douglas Century vividly brings the notorious gangster to life in these pages, telling not only his epic journey but also the history of the Russian mob in America.Ā
