Product Description
When push comes to shove in a North End card game, one of the players lies dead. What could just as well have remained an "accident" soon looks more like a cover-up, and what begins as a routine investigation exposes instead a teeming community of thugs, hustlers, and small-time operators bent on following anything but the law.
'Their Evil Ways' is a journey through the labyrinthine workings of a modern police department as it goes about the back breaking job of solving what seems to be a simple case. A body turns up I the wrong grave. Crimes and criminals are multiplying, and no one will talk. The old neighborhood has never seemed so suspicious, or so difficult to control.
In this spellbinding new novel, John Wainwright once again proves himself a consistent mast of the police procedural - "one of the best in the business," say Newsday. Every move, every detail creates a world where lifelong friends are capable, and culpable, of betrayal. Book Dust Jacket
