Jimmy Flannery, Chicago's much-loved precinct captain and sewer inspector, pursues his sleuthing sideline in this tale of murder, alligators, drugs, and politics
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
In a sewer beneath Chicago's streets, James Flannery of the city's Department of Sewers, Canals and Drains finds the body of a man. This is no ordinary dead man, as he has been bitten in two by a species of crocodilian. Next Flannery is asked to help a woman from Haiti who keeps 100 pigeons in her bathroom. Flannery (also in the paperback originals The Junkyard Dog and The 600 Pound Gorilla ) comes through once again. Low-key action, marvelous true-to-life characters, and a very neat story make this enjoyable reading. JV
