Product Description

Product Description

Jack Santiago is famous for his investigative stories, for his ability to get under the skin of the rich and famous - and for his reporting on nuclear terrorism in New York. New York, he insists, is on the verge of an attack, an attack by nuclear materials, an attack so sudden and secret that none of the preparations will make any difference. He's obsessed with suitcase nukes, with tiny weapons concealed in bags, easily carried into the city. With the fact that 100,000 people will die of nuclear poisoning. The only problem with Santiago is that he is dead. The other problem is that he made up the stories. It is the night of the August 2003 blackout when Santiago is killed. August 14, when the lights go out up and down the US East Coast. And also the night that Artie Cohen, forever single, still regretting the loss of Lily Hanes who has left him, gets married to Maxine Crabbe. He wants a life, kids, a home; with Maxie, he's convinced himself, he can find it. Santiago's death reveals a history of lies, deceit and falsified stories; Santiago has made up everything, including much of his own life. And in the course of uncovering who killed him, Artie also uncovers the ways in which information is corrupted and turned into propaganda...And then Lily returns...

3.0 out of 5 stars Red Hook, 9 Oct 2006
By Avid Reader "DMP" (North Yorkshire, ENGLAND) - See all my reviews
This is the first Artie Cohen novel I have read and I was unimpressed! Enjoyed the descriptive parts concerning NYC and Brooklyn, but the story - WHAT story? The book was over half way through before anything happened. I got extremely tired of Artie saying he was "going to the shore" when he obviously had no intention of doing so. This was his honeymoon (supposedly), but he never got there. Also, newly married he still has the definite 'hots' for his previous girlfriend - nice guy!!! An error at the end of the book when he finally heads for New Jersey - this was the tuesday - day after Labour Day in the States - the day when all the schools re-open and people return to work. He had two step-daughters who would obviously have started school that very day and would NOT have still been in New Jersey - bad error.

A disappointment and I won't be reading any more of these books.
