Paperback. A NEW MILLENIUM OF CHICAGO CRIME . . .

Four governors served prison sentences; two of them were sentenced to longer jail sentences than their terms of office. There are always more crimes than cops. During Prohibition, Detective Tug Collier created the Widows and Orphans' Fund, a euphemism for graft money. That fund eventually financed a private investigative agency known as Taylor Street.

Frankie Turk and Lola Lahti were suspended for using excessive violence in the pursuit of justice. So they were the perfect detectives to investigate the murder of the husband of a wealthy young widow who owns Chicago's hottest night spot, Club Red.

About the Author
JOBE CERNY is an award-winning actor, producer, director and writer. He grew up in Cicero, Illinois, home of Al Capone and organized crime. His high school reunions are small because many of his classmates are serving fifty to life. Cerny worked his way through college digging holes with a pick and shovel for a Cicero sewer company. Working in the gutters gave him a chance to talk to criminals and develop his lethal sense of humor.
