Chattanooga, Tennessee today is not the same town it was in the
nineteen forties through the mid-eighties. Protected by a corrupt
and self-serving local government, her masters fattened themselves
on illegal enterprise. In this one book you have biography,
treachery, and underworld intrigue. You have murder, and attempts
at murder. You have innocence accused, and guilt unpunished. You
have luxury, power, and privilege with their hands on all the
strings. You have white lightning and whiskey runners, colorful
whores, one great barroom brawl, and gunfights with such playbills
as Cowboy Bob and the Shootout at The Fuzzy Duck. You have all the
stuff of fiction, without the burden of a lie, all the benefit of
great theatre, without having to leave your favorite chair. The
best part of it is, it's all true. Down to the five o'clock shadow
on the policemen dressed like prostitutes.

same man he has just seen standing across the street from the
Caputos' house. James' night of terror is about to begin.In this
