Description
In 1995, New York was a city in flux. As the handover of Hong Kong to China loomed, gangsters were shifting their operations to the Big Apple ahead of the deadline. For Cop Callum Burke, drafted into an international investigation, this presented a unique challenge. With his experience in East Asian crime and links between the Triads and the Irish Mob, he was the perfect man for undercover work. Burke's mission took him deep into the city's lethal criminal networks, where bodies began to pile up in his wake. As he navigated these treacherous waters, his conscience threatened to overwhelm him. With NYPD handlers pushing him to continue the investigation at all costs, Burke may have to cross a moral line just to stay alive. This dark and complex novel presents a searing portrait of mid-1990s New York, one that will appeal to fans of gritty crime fiction.
