A cops-and-mobsters crime thriller that "keeps us entertained with razzle-dazzle style" (Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times).
When an undercover FBI agent is murdered, the mob and the bureau race to nab the triggerman. The prime suspect takes agent Mike Tozzi hostageβand handcuffs him to the Mafia princess they both desire. Meanwhile, the big boss captures Tozzi's partner, Gibbons, intent on seeing justice served his way . . .
From an Edgar and Anthony Awardβnominated author, this sparkling tale of suspense features "inspired plotting that just keeps ratcheting up the tension and the comedy" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
