A city on edge. On street corners, newsboys hawk the shocking headline:  KENNEDY IS DEAD. In the city’s underworld, a mob war rages. But what terrifies Bostonians  most is the mysterious killer who has already claimed a dozen victims, a murderer  whose name is indelibly linked to their city: the Boston Strangler. This is the electrifying  backdrop of William Landay’s magnificent new novel, a story of one Irish-American  family, a city under siege, and the long shadow cast by the most infamous killer  of his day . . . \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e For the three Daley brothers, sons of a Boston cop, crime is the  family business. They are simply on different sides of it. Joe is the eldest, a tough-talking  cop whose gambling habits—fast women, slow horses—drag him down into the city’s gangland.  Michael is the middle son; a Harvard-educated lawyer working for an ambitious attorney  general, he finds himself assigned to the embattled Strangler task force. And Ricky,  the devil-may-care youngest son, floats above the fray as an expert burglar—until  the Strangler strikes too close to home.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As Joe’s mob debts close in around him  . . . and Michael becomes snarled in a murder investigation gone very wrong . . .  and Ricky is hunted by both sides of the law, the three brothers—and the women who  love them—are forced to take sides. Now each must look deeper into a killer’s murderous  rage, into their family’s own lethal secrets, and into the one death that has changed  them forever. As William Landay’s complex, compassionate, and terrifying novel builds  to a climax, two mysteries will collide—and a shattering truth will be revealed.","brand":"William Landay","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback Mass market (rack) paperback","offer_id":42789030396064,"sku":"9780440237372","price":5.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback Trade size","offer_id":52169761915040,"sku":"9780345539465","price":9.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8637\/5072\/products\/BNCImageAPI_60a16c92-d84c-4a3e-a8fa-525e1408c478.jpg?v=1669071486","url":"https:\/\/rivendell-books.com\/products\/9780440237372","provider":"Rivendell Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
