Brandon Blake, the tough and resourceful kid from the Portland waterfront, has made it. He's been hired by the Portland Police Department, partly as payback for stopping a vicious cop killer in PORT CITY SHAKEDOWN. But the newest rookie on the night shift isn't pulling any punches. And when a drug-addled mom can't find her baby, Blake―whose mother left him and was killed when he was a toddler―comes down on her hard. Except the baby really is gone. Meanwhile, Blake's girlfriend, aspiring writer Mia, sees Brandon drifting into the world of cops and crime and leaving her behind. Brandon's relentless search for the child brings a load of trouble down on him, threatens his career, his life, his relationship. Will he end up alone on his old cabin cruiser Bay Witch? Or worse?

"Boyle’s writing has the clipped, punchy pace of high-caliber crime-thrillers . . " –The Bollard
Port City (Black & White) the reader closes the book wanting to know more about Brandon. Gerry Boyle's novel is propelled by crisp, realistic dialogue and vivid but sparse description. . . Mr. Boyle brings experience and knowledge to his setting and characters." - ForeWord Reviews
"Tough, pithy dialogue and fast-paced action. In Brandon Blake, Boyle has created an interesting new protagonist . . . as well as prospects for another long and fine series." - Colby Magazine
Port City series will be a classic, showing the reality of New England coast life -- a mix of myth and painful reality." –Kingdom Books
