Description

Bushwick Brooklyn in the 1970s is a cesspool of drugs, violence, and depravity. Every aspect of life in the blighted neighborhood has been contaminated by the Mafia. Butchie Bucciogrosso is an Italian cop who detests the Mob. A survivor of the streets, he returns from Vietnam only to find Bushwick in ruin. His partner, Fast Eddie Curran, had to kill his way out of Belfast. The only cops with the courage to take on the Mob, they become a deadly nuisance trying to win back their streets. Only the Mafia, their own dirty Police Department, and a corrupt federal government stand in their way. With themselves and their loved one squarely in the crosshairs, can they destroy the Mob's criminal empire before they are killed? Can they outwit a crooked Department of Justice before they are framed and imprisoned? The clock is ticking with Bushwick's survival in the balance. A reckoning in Brooklyn is the new historical crime thriller from Detective Michael O'Keefe, the author of the breakout novel, Shot to Pieces.

Author Biography:

Michael O'Keefe is a poet and author from Long Island by way of Brooklyn. A retired 1st Grade Detective from the NYPD, he worked in New York for twenty-four-years, investigating Homicides and other violent crime. Born and raised on the streets described in his fiction, his characters and settings are drawn from the people he encountered there-on both sides of the law. Shot to Pieces is his first novel, published July 2016. Adopted into the curriculum by the John Jay College of Criminal Justice and Saint John's University as recommended reading for all criminal justice and investigations majors at both colleges. He is presently near completion on two follow-up novels. A collection of short fiction entitled, 13 Stories-Fractured, Twisted, & Put Away Wet, was published in May of 2019, as was the short novella, Not buried Deep Enough. Michael lives on Long Island with his family.
