Sam Acquillo Hamptons mystery, [7]

Not everyone gets to live their adult lives orbiting a central mystery, but that's how it's been for Sam, for whom a single, horrific event has helped define his entire existence. Now that event has reached out from the deep past, with secrets within secrets he's forced to unpack like a Russian doll, each more ominous than the one before. The action moves from Southampton to the Bronx, where Sam once prowled in the part-time care of his father, owner of a truck repair business and a temper that stood out even on the mean streets of the city. It's here that Sam learns that evil history doesn't only repeat itself, it can improve upon the original product. That no matter how things change, the world of cops and criminals, priests, power brokers, wise guys, and even wiser old bartenders stays the same. Or gets much, much worse
