A compelling noir novel, set in the 1930s, echoing elements of classic hardboiled fiction while foreshadowing contemporary ills. In a city of elusive agendas, it's hard to find the truth. It's harder to find what's right. A bootlegger's dream in Depression-era USA is rocked by an attempt to destroy his lucrative business. What begins as a curious evening snowballs into a night-time odyssey as Fontana searches for answers he never thought he'd have to find. The city is saturated with criminal and political extremism - is there anyone he can trust? Setting and style are just as much characters in this evocative novel by an astonishingly talented young author.
