His brother, William (\"Bill\") Kern, was just a car salesman and disdained by his ambitious family. But then, Bill was also a compulsive gambler who went on sprees and wrote bad checks to cover his losses. In the no-holds-barred Chelsea district of 1970s New York City where private detective Dan Fortune worked, Bill Kern was known as a paperhanger. \u003cbr\u003e Wallace hires Fortune to drag his gambling brother back home from his latest fling. But Fortune soon discovers the truth: the brother has disappeared with the money he was supposed to use to get Wallace's son out of a Mexican jail. That's a big problem. Followed by a bigger problem: murder.\u003cbr\u003e Here is a gripping story of the iconic detective following the violent twists of a trail that leads him from mansions and glassy skyscraper offices to dark Manhattan rooftops where cop and killer stalk one another. You'll watch backroom card games and meet gamblers, dope-pushers, and killers - the nightrunners - until, finally, and worst of all for Fortune, he has to avenge a personal loss.","brand":"Canning Park Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47039820955888,"sku":"9781941517178","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781941517178_p0.jpg?v=1763755891","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781941517178","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
