A month before he becomes New York City’s mayor, Sidel confronts a gang of baseball-loving racists
For the first time in his adult life, Isaac Sidel is no longer a cop. He has moved beyond the halls of One Police Plaza, and is about to take residence in Gracie Mansion, after winning New York’s mayoral election in a landslide. Unable to bear his downtown apartment without his girlfriend—who is in Europe confronting her Nazi-tinged past—the increasingly paranoid mayor-elect has set up shop in a homeless shelter under the name Geronimo Jones. His aides roust him from his hiding spot and have returned him to work when he gets a call from the shelter: Geronimo Jones is dead.
 
A gang of white supremacists roams the city, murdering shelter residents and marking them with Sidel’s alias. They leave notes with each victim, signing them with the names of nineteenth-century baseball players. Mayors don’t go armed, but Sidel isn’t the mayor yet. He and his Glock will settle this problem before he takes his oath of office.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Jerome Charyn

A obra de Jerome Charyn, prolífica, impressionante e recompensada com numerosos prémios, é caracterizada por uma escrita única e por um universo fabulosamente pessoal. Impregnadas pela cidade de Nova Iorque, onde o autor nasceu em 1937, as suas obras põem em evidência uma cidade onde abundam ruas misteriosas, recantos secretos e bairros sombrios…
Originário do Bronx, Jerome Charyn conduz-nos, através de ruelas e travessas, entre desequilíbrio e caos, por zonas muitas vezes policiais e por vezes autobiográficas.
Mestre incontestado do romance policial (Blue Eyes, Marilyn the Wild, Citizen Sidel), Charyn parte em busca do "Sonho Americano" e de todos aqueles que lhe dão forma: traficantes, polícias, imigrados, políticos desonestos, almas solitárias..., contando a história dos condenados e dos proscritos da cidade que nunca dorme. Boca do Diabo, A Mulher do Mágico e Little Tulip, realizados em colaboração com François Boucq, não escapam a esta regra. Escritor humanista e talentoso, Jerome Charyn é também autor de numerosos romances (Darlin’ Bill, Metropolis, etc.), ensaios e novelas. Considerado por muitos como um dos escritores mais importantes da literatura americana contemporânea, surpreende-nos a cada obra.
