A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.

A doorstopper saga of a novel by Winslow, who has now moved away from his triumphant and award-winning novels about the war against drugs and now focuses his sharp intelligence and fiery prose on the endemic corruption at the heart of the New York police force. Dennis Malone, a sergeant in the Manhattan North Special Task Force is corrupt, but only in minor ways as some of his colleagues and bosses are implicated so much deeper into the shadow zones of compromise and outright crime. Otherwise he feels he is a good cop for whom the job is sacred and his trangressions just a rewarding distraction to his sworn mission in cleaning up the city. Now the Feds are on his trail and the battle to extricate himself from the morass is an upward task, as he tries to continue getting the daily job done, save his skin, protect his family. A veritable saga of modern New York, with grit and realism to spare and a mighty portrait of a soul divided against a backdrop we are all too familiar with from our newspaper headlines. Unsentimental, brutal, a major noir monument. ~ Maxim Jakubowski
