Description
A gripping novel about corruption and deceit in 1940s New York City. Woodrow Cain, a disgraced cop, is tasked with investigating a series of murders that lead him into a complex web of possibly traitorous corruption. Cain's investigation stalls until he meets Danziger, a mysterious letter writer for illiterate European immigrants who possesses seemingly boundless knowledge of the city's denizens and networks. As the body count grows, Cain and Danziger inch closer to uncovering an underground world of danger and deception. With its fast-paced and thrilling plot, this novel is a gripping pacey read that explores the darker side of human nature in 1940s New York City.
