The French Connection is the heart-stopping account of an extraordinary true story.
One night, two New York narcotics detectives, ‘Popeye’ Egan and ‘Cloudy’ Grosso, are at the Copacabana Club when they come across a boisterous party. The host is a young, pockmarked man named Patsy Fuca, who behaves like a head gangster.
Key Events in the Story:
- Patsy pays his bill with a huge wad of money, instantly catching the detectives' attention.
- Instinctively, they decide to tail him but are baffled to discover that Patsy is merely the owner of a lowly newsstand.
- This oddity sparks their curiosity, leading them to investigate further.
What Follows:
Unbeknownst to Popeye and Cloudy, they are about to embark on an eighteen-month odyssey filled with:
- Intrigue and conspiracy
- Journeys through plush tree-lined suburbs and dark Brooklyn tenements
- International twists, taking them to Paris, Marseilles, and Palermo
Their relentless pursuit ultimately leads them to break the world's largest heroin network.
This gripping tale captures the depth of their investigation and the unexpected turns that make it a true crime classic.
