Paradise Park 2009 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards Quarter-finalist "This murder mystery unfolds in the infamous Five Points neighborhood of post-Civil War New York and holds up well against any in its genre. Sergeant William Muldoon is an honest cop, a Boss Tweed favorite, and a champion wrestler in the saloons and brawl-halls of lower Manhattan. When his young protégé is arrested for a murder he didn’t commit, Muldoon must find the real killer. His search takes him from the Irish boarding houses and immigrant tenements of Paradise Park to the mansions of Fifth Avenue with stops along the way at the secret haunts of Nativists and racists. A simple plot and clean prose make for a solid piece of historical fiction. Muldoon’s inner ruminations on the status of the Irish and the period dialogue throughout the book may not be pitch-perfect, but they succeed because the author has not overreached." "a no-nonsense page-turner." -- Publisher's Weekly Click here to view the excerpt
