Brooklyn,
1954
Frankie
‘The Piston’ Corleone was an up-and-coming light heavyweight fighter until a
broken hand took him out of contention.
Now, Frankie works as a private eye, occasionally taking sparring work
to stay in shape make ends meet.
Cappy
O’Brien has trained a lot of fighters, including Frankie. But Cappy has never had a real contender
until now ... Candy Marquez is the real deal, and after being battered by
Marquez during several rounds of sparring, Frankie has to agree. But the fight game is as crooked as a dog’s
hind leg, and other trainers and the mob all want a piece of Cappy’s best
prospect.
When
Cappy winds up dead, it’s time for Frankie to take off the gloves and take The
Piston’s punching power to the street to knockout a killer ...
Sounds like fun... and I love the style of the blurb.
