Riding for a Fall

by Patricia Pascale

Deke Reno is a small-time player for New York mob family, the Gallos. Reno, a reluctant thug who manages to skirt both the law and the attention of his boss, makes the mistake of helping a broad that’s being blackmailed by his boss. He then makes another; helping her escape. Suddenly Reno’s got the attention of the cops and the mob and finds himself caught between his loyalty to the only family he’s ever really known and his long neglected morals.

Set in the 1950s, this crime-noir is a classic page turner that drops you deep in the lives of New York’s seedy underbelly.
