FROM BEST-SELLING AUTHOR TERRENCE MCCAULEY COMES A RIVETING CRIME THRILLER SET IN PROHIBITION-ERA NEW YORK.
The year is 1930 and New York is a city on the edge – banks are failing, companies are closing their doors, and breadlines grow longer by the day. The only market making money is the black market: racketeering, rum running, and speakeasies. But when even those vices begin to weaken, the most powerful gangster on the Eastern Seaboard, Archie Doyle, sees the writing on the wall.
He launches a bold scheme that, if successful, will secure his empire’s future beyond Prohibition. But when a mysterious rival attempts to kill Doyle’s right-hand man, a dangerous turf war begins to brew. With his empire under attack, Doyle turns to his best gun, former boxer Terry Quinn, for answers. Quinn must use his brains as well as his brawn to uncover who is behind the violence and why before Doyle’s empire comes crashing down.
Genre: Historical Mystery
