FTR i just got to the part of The Last Godfathers with Pino's death and it said this:
Cassara was ‘Little Shoe’ Greco’s last victim. Riina had rewarded the soldier who had risen to become his chief assassin, claiming a hundred or so lives including that of General Dalla Chiesa, with membership of the Cupola but he now worried that Greco had become too powerful. Young soldiers especially idolised him, queueing to meet him when he received visitors once a week. Riina began to think that Greco might be thinking of adding him to his long list of corpses and told only three other bosses of his decision to eliminate him. ‘They were the only ones in the know because if Greco had got wind of it they would have all had to go and hide, because that guy was capable of walking into a mili¬ tary barracks and shooting all the soldiers in it,’ an informer explained.
Later on it said this:
Riina insisted on seeing the body before it was dissolved in acid; satisfied, he appointed Lucchese to fill Greco’s shoes as clan head.
That suggests to me that Pino was briefly made Boss before his murder then was replaced by Lucchese but it doesn't say anything about Michele. I don't know it's confusing.
