Críticas:
Januska has a real knack for character-building and for giving his books a realistic feel; he nails the Prohibition ambience, capturing both the era's freewheeling adventure and its violent underside. * Booklist *
Reseña del editor:
West meets East as bootleggers and cops tangle with opium smugglers and corrupt officials in a new kind of gang warfare. Prospect Avenue is nothing more than a dirt road ending in bulrushes behind a roadhouse. It's a popular rendezvous point along the Detroit River for bootleggers like Jack McCloskey. But there's more than just rum-running going on these days; there's a growing trade in opium and people, as McCloskey finds out when he rescues the survivor of a bad smuggling deal. As if this wasn't enough, McCloskey is also trying to get his dinner club back on its feet, while his girlfriend, the indomitable Vera Maude, has a wedding to plan ... and it's not her own. He's trying to hold things together while police corruption and domestic strife threaten to pull it all apart. Then, a series of murders brings powerful groups into conflict and may drag McCloskey into the fray.

West meets East as bootleggers and cops tangle with opium smugglers and corrupt officials in a new kind of gang warfare.Prospect Avenue is nothing more than a dirt road ending in bulrushes behind a roadhouse. Its a popular rendezvous point along the Detroit River for bootleggers like Jack McCloskey. But theres more than just rum-running going on these days; theres a growing trade in opium and people, as McCloskey finds out when he rescues the survivor of a bad smuggling deal.As if this wasnt enough, McCloskey is also trying to get his dinner club back on its feet, while his girlfriend, the indomitable Vera Maude, has a wedding to plan and its not her own. Hes trying to hold things together while police corruption and domestic strife threaten to pull it all apart. Then, a series of murders brings powerful groups into conflict and may drag McCloskey into the fray. For bootleggers like Jack McCloskey, Prospect Avenue is just another dead end, and not even one of the better ones, but at least its away from prying eyes. But Jack is about to learn that what goes on in the shadows isnt at all as nice as what he does, as the trade in opium and people picks up in Windsor.
