Shadow Ticket

Power, Violence, and the Hidden City

En savoir plus sur le livre

Danger works quietly, deals are made in the shadows, and truth belongs to those who know where to look. Set in Depression-era Milwaukee, this noir historical novel follows a weary private investigator drawn into a web of bombings, missing heirs, insurance schemes, and whispers of fascist sympathizers hiding in plain sight. As organized crime, labor unrest, and emerging political extremism intersect beneath the city's calm surface, each investigation reveals not a single culprit but a system sustained by fear, money, and unspoken agreements. Moving through jazz clubs, union halls, police precincts, and family kitchens, the story explores how violence becomes normalized, how ideology hides in ordinary life, and how truth is shaped by those who control its circulation.
