Angebote / Angebote:
Johnny Burke, executioner for Lucky Luciano and his countrywide mob, is assigned the duty of working with Naval Intelligence during W.W. II. The N.Y.C. waterfront must be cleared of spies and saboteurs with Burke's help. The price the government must pay for Burke& acute, s help is to deport Luciano to Sicily rather than make him finish out his thirty year prison sentence after the war comes to an end. While the Normandie is being retrofitted from French luxury liner to Allied troopship, it is sabotaged at its Pier 88. One unidentified saboteur escapes to Canada. The remaining three are eliminated. The War is over and Burke is accused by the D.A. of murdering the surviving saboteur who in the mean time has returned to N.Y.C. and become a boss-stevedore. Burke finds himself in Sing Sing's electric chair claiming innocence. Adventure - romance - political corruption - and courtroom drama will keep the pages turning.
