When former NYPD detective Joe Serpe hit bottom, he just kept on
going. Having lost his career to charges of corruption, his family
to divorce, his partner to suicide, and his fireman brother to the
tragedy of 9/11, Serpe's world is nearly empty but for his cat,
Mulligan. Living in a basement apartment in a blue collar town on
Long Island, Joe spends his days filling tanks with home heating
oil and his nights filling his belly with vodka.
But when a young retarded man who worked for Joe's oil company
is cruelly murdered, Joe Serpe rediscovers purpose and grasps for a
last chance at redemption.
Along with his former Internal Affairs Bureau nemesis, Bob
Healy, and Marla Stein, a brave and beautiful, group home
psychologist, Joe wades into the world of street gangs,
anti-immigration organizations, and the Red Mafia.
"Hose Monkey" is a rough and tumble ride through a violent,
often cruel world--a world where it's hard to tell the bad guys
from the good guys without a scorecard. It is a world of murder and
extortion, but one in which an innocent Down Syndrome girl may hold
the key that unlocks the mystery. At the same time, "Hose Monkey"
is a story of salvation and forgiveness. . . a tale of justice
done.
