El lamento del mafioso

New York, Fall 1947. A mob boss tries to leave town when boss Frank Costello tasks him with tracking down money stolen from the underworld. Meanwhile, Ida Davis and Michael Talbot investigate crimes perpetrated in a seedy boarding house in Harlem of which his son is accused. But, as the investigation progresses, Ida and Michael realize that it is not a simple crime of the underworld, that the case is much more complex than it seems. The third installment of Ray Celestin's award-winning City Blues quartet is both a gripping and groundbreaking crime novel and an intense panoramic portrait of 1940s New York, when the mafia reached its highest levels of power and Senator Joe McCarthy began his Manages to establish his own reign of terror... All with a background atmosphere peppered with the best jazz of Louis Armstrong.
