The Big Crowd
(eBook)
Inspired by one of the great, unsolved murders in mob history, this novel tells the sweeping story of Charlie O'Kane, a poor Irish immigrant who works his way up from beat cop to mayor of New York at the city's postwar zenith. Famous, powerful, and married to a fashion model, millions of local citizens look up to him, including his younger brother, Tom-until he is accused of abetting a shocking crime. The charges stem from his days as a crusading Brooklyn DA, when he sent the notorious killers of Murder, Inc., to the chair-only to let a vital witness fall to his death while under police guard. Now out of office, Charlie is hiding from the authorities in a Mexico City hotel. To uncover what really happened, Tom must confront stunning truths about his brother, himself, and the secret workings of the great city he loves.
