Produktbeschreibung

DEAD SOPRANO, A BAYSIDE CITY BOOK, EPISODE ONE

Only the strong will survive in this city in turmoil!

The four ethnic mobs of Bayside City are vying for control of the town, and they will stop at nothing to get it. There's not a lot to stop them other than a few honest cops and each other. One man, Detective Sergeant Dick Devereux, has the world on his shoulders as he tries to fight injustice in this noir-style, hardboiled gangster thriller.

After the death of his wife and daughter accidentally at the hands of rival mobs a few years before, Devereux wants vengeance. A body's been found in the Docklands area, that of Mario Zambrotta, a famous opera singer, and Devereux's on the case. He suspects the Jews did it headed by Avi Baumshinsky. As he goes about town looking for suspects, he unravels some dark secrets from the highest echelons of the city's government.

Dead Soprano, A Bayside City Book, Episode One, is the first instalment of five to come: Purple Haze, Red Magic, Honey Bee, Killer Toast and the last in the series, Tiger Dawn!

Autorenporträt

James Dargan is the author of over thirty books spanning crime, noir, satire, historical fiction, and literary fiction. Known for razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and a knack for weaving grit with dark humour, his work ranges from the hard-boiled streets of the Napoleon Clancy thrillers to the sprawling crime sagas of The Bayside City series, the evocative Latin American novels, and a host of standalone titles.

Dargan's novels often drop readers into morally complex worlds where loyalty is fragile, justice is elusive, and survival depends on quick thinking and a little luck. Influenced by the likes of Elmore Leonard, Dennis Lehane, and Cormac McCarthy, his prose balances propulsive storytelling with atmospheric detail, creating stories that are as cinematic as they are immersive.

Whether exploring mob wars and political corruption, the quiet desperation of outsiders, or the chaos of history's turning points, Dargan writes with an unflinching eye and a storyteller's instinct for pacing, character, and place. His work is as much about the people caught in the crossfire as it is about the bullets themselves.
