Canaries over Canarsie - Softcover
But suddenly, Breda's Boardwalk Empire is in danger of plummeting off a fiscal cliff. Not only is the economy crashing, but his bona-fide "one-percenter" son-in-law is poised for a brutal takeover through a complex series of political maneuverings, land grabs and Ponzi schemes.
How can a family with old-school values challenge the new power brokers, the brazen "banksters" of Wall Street? With the King of Mayhem, of course: Freddie Breda III, a Harley-driving maniac with a degree in auto mechanics―an unlikely hero leading a people's revolt to take back their hardscrabble town.
Written with a unique, contemporary edge, Brian Dominic's big-hearted, tragic comedy about a battle between a complicated Jersey every man and his "wealthy one-percent" kin may just be the satirically sharp, defining symbol of today's ongoing economic war for America's soul.
