It's 1948, an era when newspapermen were stars - and San Francisco
sportswriter Billy Nichols is no exception. Known as Mr. Boxing throughout
the city, he is the West Coast's answer to Damon Runyon, an insider's
insider who plucks and polishes his pearl-like stories from the nonstop
hustle of the city's nightclubs,
gambling dens, and ringside seats. Nichols
is right where he wants to be, until he stumbles onto a shocking crime
scene. Heavyweight boxer Hack Escalante has killed his manager, and for
reasons he doesn't understand himself, Billy makes a spur-of-the-moment
decision to protect the prizefighter. Soon Billy's in too deep, caught in a
conspiracy of desire, deceit, and betrayal, and he sets off a chain of
events whose consequences may cost him his beloved career - and his life.
Winner of the Shamus Award for Best First Novel, this hard-boiled thriller
is given a gritty authenticity by author Eddie Muller's knowledge of boxing
and film noir.
