Apaches - Hardcover
2 cassettes / 3 hours
Read by John Glover
It is the early 1980s. Crack cocaine has made its devastating appearance. Violence is escalating. An innocent 12-year-old girl is brutally kidnapped; the kidnapper has made a deadly mistake. He has brought Boomer Frontieri, a retired New York City detective, back to the streets, and back into action. When an old friend turns to him for help, Boomer has the excuse he needs to return to the life he loved.
He bands together with others like him: Dead-Eye. Pins. Geronimo. Reverend Jim. Mrs. Columbo. They were great cops. The best cops. Now they are apaches-- a renegade unit working on their own. Some might call them criminals. Some might call them heroes. But theirs is a world where good is always shadowed by bad, where right is almost indecipherable from wrong, and where the living can, within mere moments, cross over to the world of the dead.
With this novel, the author of the stunning #1 bestseller Sleepers returns to the mean streets he knows so well. And in doing so, he has written his most explosive, electrifying, and startling book yet.

From the Publisher:
It was incredibly exciting to work on Lorenzo's first work of fiction. The pages came in batches at first, then all at once. But each early batch of pages was like going to the old movie serials, never knowing what would happen to our hero in the next episode.
