The Dead of Brooklyn — Robert J. Randisi

Private eye Nick Delvecchio (No Exit from Brooklyn) returns in the sort of fast-paced mystery that has made author Robert J. Randisi's name synonymous with the modern detective novel. Nick's brother Vincent, a Roman Catholic priest, stands accused of murdering Gloria Mancuso to cover up an alleged affair. The evidence is damning. As Nick juggles the family crisis with another case, he turns for help to voluptuous neighbor Samantha Karson . . . and more dangerously, to the Brooklyn "Godfather" Dominick (the Barracuda) Barracondi. In Brooklyn, everything has its price, including justice.
