Description
In a raging New England Nor'easter, in the winter of 1957, two men are killed in a deserted amusement park on the Massachusetts coast. Two Metro Police detectives catch the case: One a grizzled veteran who would rather be anywhere else; the other a rookie, twenty-eight-year-old, Anthony Gallo, a Korean War hero who relishes the challenge of his first homicide.
The killing takes place in Gallo's hometown and puts him face to face with the high school sweetheart he left behind when he joined the Marines. His efforts to win her back are not well received. She's moved on; he hasn't. The murder investigation, spirals into the world of organized crime, uncovers police corruption at the highest levels and puts Gallo in the crosshairs of Irish Mafia gangsters responsible for one of the greatest bank heists in state history.In a raging New England Nor'easter, in the winter of 1957, two men are killed in a deserted amusement park on the Massachusetts coast.
