<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of <i>Sleepers</i> and <i>The Wolf</i>, hailed as "simply the best" (Steve Berry) and "one of the most intriguing writers around" (<i>Newsweek</i>). . . .</b><br><b> </b><br><b>A top NYPD detective is pulled out of retirement to take down a notorious drug dealer. But will he risk the only family he's ever had to crack the case?</b> <p/> As one of the NYPD's most trusted "tin badges"--retired detectives brought in to solve cases that are beyond the reach of the everyday force--Tank Rizzo has faced off against some of the city's toughest criminals without breaking a sweat. To tackle a case involving a dangerous kingpin known as Gonzo, Tank turns to his best friend and ex-partner, Pearl; a former mobster living out a seemingly quiet retirement as the owner of Tank's favorite Italian restaurant; and a team of expert misfits he would trust with his life. But Gonzo will stop at nothing to defend the empire he's built, and won't hesitate to make it personal. <p/> Then Tank gets a call telling him that his brother and sister-in-law, estranged from him for many years, have been killed in a horrific car accident. Tank is the only family left for his orphaned teenage nephew, Chris, although he knows his lifestyle is ill-suited to win him father of the year. <p/> Chris moves in with Tank, and the two circle each other warily. It's only when Chris reveals an interest in true crime and a genius-level skill with computers that they begin to bond. Chris's skills may be exactly what Tank's team needs to take Gonzo down--but getting him involved could put his life at risk. <p/><b>Advance praise for <i>Tin Badges</i></b> <p/>"Carcaterra capably combines his trademark adrenaline-fueled action with the emotion involved in Tank taking on a parental role for a sometimes surly teen. All this needs, after a cliff-hanger close, is a sequel, and, fortunately, one is promised." <b>--<i>Booklist</i></b> <p/>"Another gem from a writer who has earned his spot at the top echelon of suspense masters . . . Everything here leaps from the page, never stinting on the harsh reality, delivering a spicy, smart, and entertaining adventure."<b>--Steve Berry, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of the Cotton Malone series</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><b>Advance praise for <i>Tin Badges</i></b> <p/>"Carcaterra capably combines his trademark adrenaline-fueled action with the emotion involved in Tank taking on a parental role for a sometimes surly teen.
