505 0  A voice from the dark side -- Bobby Covert, meet Bob 
       Delaney -- Let's end this thing of theirs -- The 
       consigliere and the cop -- In the shadow of the Statue of 
       Liberty -- No good fellas here -- The bella vita -- 
       Remember the Alamo -- Going, going, gone -- The raid -- 
       Spiraling downward -- Whistle-blower -- A new life through
       hoops -- I've always been a number -- A final call. 
520    In 1975, Delaney was a relative novice in law enforcement 
       when he was tapped by a superior to help build cases 
       against major Mafia families by creating and running a 
       fake business, Alamo Trucking. Delaney captures perfectly 
       the daily routine and perils of undercover work, and 
       describes the psychological challenges he faced during the
       three years of Project Alpha. Becoming a basketball 
       referee after these proceedings was a return to an early 
       passion of the high school all-state forward and captain 
       of his college team?but the fear, he says, still comes 
       back sometimes.
