Told with a great eye for detail and a deep appreciation of goodness." -Wayne Coffey, New York Times bestselling author of The Boys of Winter, "A lionized legend wrapped in truisms trumps crime in Mystic River country." -Kirkus Reviews "The characters leap off the page as if they're from a Robert Parker novel, and the city's grit is reminiscent of Dennis Lehane's Mystic River. Yet it's all true-a lesson in human nature, a lesson in law enforcement history, and a lesson in life." -Brian McGrory, author of Dead Line, The Incumbent and The Nominee "With Legends of Winter Hill, Jay Atkinson proves himself a literary alchemist of the highest order. He reaches behind the cobalt stares and brass exteriors to the steel blue blood of a rough and ready family of cops. By listening to the souls of these men beneath their bravado, Atkinson has written his way into the company of Dennis Lehane and Mario Puzo. A stunning accomplishment." -Joe Kurmaskie, author of Metal Cowboy and Riding Outside the Lines "With its bigger-than-life hero and pistol-crack prose, Legends of Winter Hill reads like a George Higgins novel. The wonder is, it's a true story, and Jay Atkinson delivers the goods. Here is a complex, multicharacter tale, torn straight from today's headlines. Riding shotgun, Atkinson goes down the dark streets and casts an unflinching eye on all he surveys and yet manages to convey a compassion, and even an affection, for the players." -David Daniel, author of Goofy Foot and The Marble Kite "Peppered with an assortment of felons, thieves, con artists and dirty cops, this is an unflinching look at the gritty day-to-day life of one of our heroes in blue." -Tucson Citizen "A page turner. Legends of Winter Hill, which had me cringing one minute and laughing the next, broadened my street education. Read it yourself. I guarantee it will do the same for you. -Boston Sunday Globe "Collaring the reader from the start, Legends of Winter Hill pushes hard and fast, propelling larger-than-life characters across the page, never loosening its grip, never going soft." -Boston Herald "Atkinson tells the McCain's real-life story in the exciting style of a novel." -The Improper Bostonian "A great read." -Providence Journal "Spicy, streetwise and saturated with sordid stories and tales from the underworld.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
