The End of Brooklyn — Robert J. Randisi

* Starred Review Booklist. "The final entry in Randisi's Brooklyn trilogy is dark, brooding, and thoroughly compelling [with] . . . clever plotting and an engaging narrative voice. Randisi has written hundreds of crime stories and earned numerous awards. This is among his finest efforts." (Wes Lukowsky, Booklist, May 2011) Nick Delvecchio, the private-eye hero of No Exit from Brooklyn and The Dead of Brooklyn, returns in a fast-paced tale of family lies and broken friendships. A beautiful young woman from Nick's high school days is dead, and her family hires Nick to find out whether it was suicide or murder. No sooner has he tackled the case than tragedy strikes close to home and Nick learns that his deepest assumptions about who he is are lies--and that one man's blood-stained past is about to impose a brutal toll on the people Nick loves most. Here is the culminating Brooklyn novel by Robert J. Randisi, recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Private Eye Writers of America and author of more than five hundred published novels. Says Michael Connolly: "He's one of the best!" Advertising: Mystery Scene Magazine.
