Before he was Razor the Mafia Don. Before he was Razor the Consigliere to Joey Leftfoot and third in line to run the Leftfoot Crime Family. He was Anthony DeLuca, the young Italian confidence man. Come along with Olivia Wainwright as she learns a little more about the man he was before he was Razor. Razor's Edge: Pig in a Poke A poke is a bag-thus concealing the item being sold. Comes from the 14th Century saying: 'I wyll neuer bye the pyg in the poke Thers many a foule pyg in a feyre cloke' A confidence trick where a farmer would substitute a cat for a suckling pig when bringing it to market. The goal being to sell the cat as a pig without the buyer finding out the truth until too late. Can also extend to selling anything sight unseen and leaving the buyer with something they did not think they bought.
Autorenporträt
J. Arens grew up on the Western Shore of Southern Michigan. Her days filled with horses, dogs, day dreams of fast cars and a love for great literary detectives. Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, Philip Marlowe, Sam Spade, Sherlock Holmes, and brilliant but dangerous men who inhabit the pages of History during the time of the Volstead Act. The District Detective series was born out of the need to read books that blended together the best things of all of J. Arens' favorites. All while set in Prohibition Era Middle-America. When not working on the latest District Detective novel, or coming up with ideas for the next novel, J. Arens can be found attending local car shows, riding horses with friends, cuddling with police dog training drop-out, Dutch Shepherd mix, Dutchess and daydreaming about fast cars.
