A city on edge. On street corners, newsboys hawk the shocking headline:  KENNEDY IS DEAD. In the city's underworld, a mob war rages. But what terrifies Bostonians  most is the mysterious killer who has already claimed a dozen victims, a murderer  whose name is indelibly linked to their city: the Boston Strangler. This is the electrifying  backdrop of William Landay's magnificent new novel, a story of one Irish-American  family, a city under siege, and the long shadow cast by the most infamous killer  of his day . . . \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e For the three Daley brothers, sons of a Boston cop, crime is the  family business. They are simply on different sides of it. Joe is the eldest, a tough-talking  cop whose gambling habits-fast women, slow horses-drag him down into the city's gangland.  Michael is the middle son; a Harvard-educated lawyer working for an ambitious attorney  general, he finds himself assigned to the embattled Strangler task force. And Ricky,  the devil-may-care youngest son, floats above the fray as an expert burglar-until  the Strangler strikes too close to home.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As Joe's mob debts close in around him  . . . and Michael becomes snarled in a murder investigation gone very wrong . . .  and Ricky is hunted by both sides of the law, the three brothers-and the women who  love them-are forced to take sides. Now each must look deeper into a killer's murderous  rage, into their family's own lethal secrets, and into the one death that has changed  them forever. As William Landay's complex, compassionate, and terrifying novel builds  to a climax, two mysteries will collide-and a shattering truth will be revealed.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47097753796848,"sku":"2940169148879","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169148879_p0.jpg?v=1765232619","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169148879","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
