A gripping detective novel, Blood for Blood follows two New York police officers on their bloody hunt for serial killers of old men. Inspector Al Seriani, a veteran officer with a tortured soul who prefers the company of street prostitutes to his boys in blue, is partnered with David Goldberg, a rookie cop fresh out of the academy. As the murders mount, an enigma grows: all the dead men share an old, dark secret. Why are they being killed? Is this murder or cold-blooded justice? Despite his brutal and extreme methods, Inspector Al Seriani seeks the truth behind these terrible crimes - no matter what it takes.

This stylish and breathtaking mystery is a forceful, adrenaline fueled thrillride with non-stop action and excitement. Set in New York City during the turbulent 1970s, this novel has the dark tones characteristic of film noir and features vivid imagery and graphic violence. With a world-weary cynicism worthy of Raymond Chandler and its stunning atmosphere, this debut whodunit echoes the best classic detective fiction. Blood for Blood may well become the undisputed modern successor of 'hard-boiled' American crime stories.
