Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon

Mad Dog and the Sea Dragon is a noir, darkly comedic caper set in current time but written as a 1950?s hard-boiled suspense thriller. The central plot is a series of age-old cons playing out in real time. The reader isn?t sure who to trust. Is our stylish heroine an unreliable narrator? One thing?s for sure ? she?s got a backbone of steel. What about her sister? Is she a killer with a fondness for nose candy? And you don?t want to mess with the mob boss antagonist, Vincenzo Esposito, gangster , whose love for the murder photographer, Weegee finds its way into his business dealings. Greed drives the stakes higher and higher, complicated by sibling rivalry, doomed love affairs and unresolved parental cruelty.
