Overview
"A genre-bending cinematic novel." -Clint Wilkins, former Encore Fellow, Mayor's Office in San Jose
"Colorful and unforgettable." -Barbara Kibbe, artist and Citizen Joy leader
In a time when department stores ruled downtowns, a prominent store heir is kidnapped in 1933 under suspicious circumstances, and Hoover's Bureau of Investigation sends cynical agent Louis Cooper to investigate.
Cooper discovers that this crime is only a prelude to a dangerous play by the local power structure to expand control amid spiraling economic disruption, labor unrest, and anti-immigrant racism.
As Cooper unravels long-standing but shifting alliances of business leaders, city officials, and mobsters, he learns who is behind the kidnapping and why-but not in time to prevent a raging mob bent on vengeance.
