Hah. Rasputin of the Bronx indeed. I liked this line especially:
The plot to kill Michael Malloy was becoming cost-prohibitive; the open bar tab, the cans of wood alcohol and the monthly insurance premiums all added up.

No one knew much about him—not even, it seemed, Malloy himself—other than that he had come from Ireland Russia. He had no friends or family, no definitive date of birth
Things never go well when you try to kill Rasputin for insurance money.

The Murder Trust included Edward "Tin Ear" Smith (so-called even though his artificial ear was made of wax), Anthony "Tough Tony" Bastone (so-called even though his entire body was made of tissue paper) and his his slavish sidekick, Joseph "Slavish Sidekick" Maglione (so-called even though he was not Slavic, could not kick and took no side).
Associate membership (and off-peak use of all club facilities) was later granted to Alfredo "Bouncy Castle" Bonnaducci (so-called even though he was not an piece of inflatable rubber architecture) and Newt "the Horrible, Ugly, Insane Toad" Gingritch (so-called even though he was not actually a Newt).
They all plotted to kill Michael "that guy we plotted to kill" Malloy (so-called even though the plot was not effective). Eventually they were all arrested in winter by Detective Sue "so-called" Cauld, who was so-called Sue Cauld even though she was so cold.
