โฆ Synopsis
The first case is history. That's the famous trial of Sacco and Vanzetti, Boston's pair of immigrant anarchists executed for a murder many still say they never committed.
The second case makes history at least for Doc Adams. John Robinson, Doc's handsome, generous friend, has been found dead, his body curiously unmarked. And two of the killer's fingers are discovered lodged in the jaws of Robinson's similarly dispatched guard dog.
Between the seemingly unrelated cases, generations apart, lies a critical and hazardous link that will introduce Doc to the best-kept scandals of Boston's first families and to the Mafia strongholds of the colorful North End.
Doc Adams's friend John Robinson is dead, and somehow, the murder is tied into the infamous Sacco and Vanzetti murder trial of the 1920s. The shocking answer lies in some well-kept scandals involving Boston's first families--as well as the Mafia strongholds of the colorful North End. Reissue. 48.
