From Booklist:
Reminiscent of The Godfather and Goodfellas, Solomita’s latest packs a real punch. It’s Christmas time, and Macy’s in New York is teeming with shoppers. So when gangster Anthony Maguire is stabbed to death in the jewelry department, neither the shoppers nor the staff has a clue whodunit. Lieutenant Solly Epstein knows Maguire’s death could trigger yet another all-out gang war—something that his unit, the Organized Crime Control Bureau, wants to avoid at all costs. Plus Solly needs to arrest the perp asap, since his wife is due to deliver their first child at any time, and Solly has promised to take time off for the birth. At first it seems easy enough to tell who the good guys are in this gritty urban crime tale, but as the case heats up, the line between good and evil blurs, and by the end, the concepts of good and bad, right and wrong, have become hazier and hazier. Packed with action and violence, filled with byzantine twists, and overlaid with a sinister melancholy, Solomita’s hard-edged cops-versus-gangsters saga makes for gripping reading. --Emily Melton
