Alec Marino and the Getaway Car - Signed by Author

It's 1920, and Alec Marino has long been the King of Crime in New York City. However, that title has also made him enemies. He knew what came with being a Crime Lord. He just never expected what was unfolding to take place, the case linked to the events, or how deeply involved he would be.

More new faces enter the King of Crime’s life as the mystery of the Crime Lord's deaths unfolds. Sarah Cartwright and her brother, Alexander Cartwright, add their pieces to the chessboard. The skills of these two siblings might just be what he is looking for.

Alec has to learn whom to trust in this mixed-up chain of events, while friendships are tested and horrible truths are revealed.

Who will make it out of this alive, and who will die? Who is behind the mystery that has pulled Alec into the ever-growing web? Who can be trusted?

This story has all the dark mafia-mystery themes that reflect the cutthroat reality of those caught up in that world, while touching on fear and judgment for anyone who would have been part of the queer community at that time. Readers who enjoy mystery and thriller novels, such as Verity, Sherlock Holmes, or Where the Crawdads Sing, will find this series just as exciting to get lost in and eager to solve the mystery.
