Title: Visiting Brooklyn
Genre: Political Thriller
Time: Early 1990’s
Place: Washington D. C., New York City, St. Louis
Disgraced political consultant thinks he has found true romance, but instead he is up against the emerging Russian Mafia in New York City for the fight of his life.
Patrick Connor wakes up from a weeklong drunk to see his life in ruin. Just a few weeks before he was one of the most successful lobbyist and political consultants in D.C. What starts as teasing a recently outed gay Congressman, ends in the ruining of Patrick’s business and the start of a new life in St. Louis.
While in St. Louis, he meets a Russian doctor, Lilya Ivanova, who is doing postgraduate work at Washington University in the area of medical business practices. They begin an affair, which lasts about a month.
Patrick Conner must return briefly to New York to confront his estranged heiress wife who wants a divorce. While in New York, his Russian doctor lover is taken from Washington University by members of the Russian Mafia to New York City.
Patrick returns to St. Louis and must begin the hunt for his lost lover. He contacts people from his past to help in the search.
His boyhood friend, Vinny De Pama, is a member of the now defunct Italian Mafia in New York City. Patrick has to contact Vinny to help in the search after not talking to him for over thirty years. They share a secret of a violent act they committed, as children that have kept them apart, but now will help bring them together.
Patrick’s early life is explained through various flash back chapters that examine his friendships and struggles growing up in Brooklyn in the mid 1950’s. Approximately one fourth of the novel involves Patrick’s growing years in a fatherless home with a schizophrenic mother. Patrick’s life mentor is a secular priest named Peat McKay. Peat has a love of woman that causes him trouble, especially when he chooses the girlfriend of a Brooklyn mafia prince, who is also Vinny De Pama’s mother.
The novel’s ending involves an unusual take down of the Russian mafia in New York City using characters collected throughout the book.
A number of very colorful characters appear throughout the novel. The character dialogue and personalities may be compared to an Elmore Lenard novel.
Some unique insights into the working of the New York Russian Mafia are also revealed especially in the areas of insurance and medical fraud, as well as the sex trade.
Russian phrases are used throughout with accompanying English translations.
Visiting Brooklyn is approximately 450 pages and 190,000 words in length and written in the third person.
