Confessions of the Bingo Embezzler : Xlibris : 9781425784997 : 1425784992 : 27 Nov 2007 : Frankie Olivieri works in a cardboard factory and can't read, but he has a warm bed, good food, a clean house, and plenty of sex. What else does he need? A devout Italian Catholic, he leads a happy, uneventful married life with six children. But when he questions the morality of church bingo during confession, Father Patterson accuses him of stealing $2,526.69 from the bingo funds. Two Irish detectives charge him with embezzlement, and an ex-Catholic journalist alleges he belongs to the mob. Frankie's life is turned upside down. He becomes promiscuous and a born again Christian, but in the end he struggles to return to his old life only to find that he can never be the same person.
