Monk and the Dirty Cop @page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } CHAPTER TWELVE Mr. Monk and the Godfather I couldn’t believe that Monk had ever worked for the mob. But he had. He gave me all the details as I drove him down to the county jail in our new Lexus. It had happened shortly before his previous assistant, Sharona Fleming, left him and I was hired. Someone walked into a barbershop that was a front for Lucarelli’s gambling and protection racket and killed everybody in the place. Lucarelli and his men wanted revenge but he didn’t want to spark a mob war, so he snatched Monk off the street and pressed him into service to find out who was responsible for the massacre. Monk took the job because he was terrified not to, and because the feds, who were staking out Lucarelli, saw this as a perfect opportunity to get a man on the inside. The feds made Monk wear a tie with a listening device woven into it and sent him back into the heart of the San Francisco mob.
