The year is 1958. The time of the Cold War and Civil Rights Movement. A Black teenager is found beaten in a Jewish alley. Detective James McCallum, with only a handful of clues, calls on his once estranged friend, Rabbi Drew Aldala, for help. Their investigation leads them to jazz trumpeter Tucker Wilson—and to secrets of his past that threaten the present. Assault in Forgotten Alley explores the struggle for friendship and the differences that fascinate us . . . and often turn us against each other. Assault in Forgotten Alley is the second installment of the Scotch & Herring Mystery series.
