New York. 2000. May 2000. Harcourt. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0151003580. 383 pages. hardcover. Jacket photograph by Danny Bright. keywords: Literature Mystery America Boston. FROM THE PUBLISHER-An explosive secret about the reality of crime and justice in America forms the heart of a first-class crime novel inspired by a true story. Every state police officer in Boston knows that Arthur McKeach and Nick Cistaro are the most prolific and ruthless practitioners of extortion, fraud, theft, bribery, assault, and murder in the area. What none of them know is how to stop these Michelangelos of crime, who for thirty years have eluded jail-and even arrest. Their secret is at the heart of George Higgins's most searing and shocking dissection of the criminal life yet. At End of Day lays bare not only the inner workings of a criminal empire, but also reveals the corruption at the heart of American law enforcement. Few writers have mapped the intricate highways and byways of crime with equal vividness and elegance, and with AT END OF DAY, Higgins has created a cast of characters to match his unique gifts. McKeach and Cistaro stand shoulder-to-shoulder with any of Eddie Coyle's friends, and their story solidifies George Higgins's place in the forefront of novelists who write about crime in America. inventory #27848.
