"Suspense and retribution fill the pages of this novel." Modesto Bee
It's St. Louis in 1900, a city over-run with corrupt politicians profiting from gambling, prostitution, and bribes. Years ago, the political machine framed Grant Monroe's father for murder. Now Grant is back from Cuban exile to get his well-planned revenge. There's just one hitch: he's fallen in love with his arch-enemy's daughter. "An absorbing story of political greed." Richmond Times-Dispatch "The author fits the actions of the characters into the plot as neatly as one might dovetail a jigsaw puzzle." New York Times "Emerick whips up a good plot, catching enough fo the bawdy, gaudy river city to keep the book above par reading material." Indianapolis News "A powerful novel of a great city where crime ran rampant and the pay-off was high." The Daily Oklahoman "The characterisation is splendid, the climax to this exceedingly fascinating story is powerful." Montgomery Advertiser "A novel of suspense, character, action and retribution that will hold the reader fascinated until the very last page." Burlington Free Press Lucille Emerick (1913-1992) was the author of several novels and a screenwriter who created the 1952 children's TV puppet show The Adventures of Blinkey.
