About This Book

Charles Perry's only novel is a riveting tale of compulsion and murder, set in the world of Brooklyn gangsters and juvenile delinquents. Caught in a whirlpool of street crime and Oedipal passion, the narrator Harold Odom is driven by circumstances into acts of self-destruction and twisted sexuality.
