Description
Naomi was all too aware of 'Varsity Dance', the 1950s TV dance show that was a gold mine for everyone. Her father owned part of it; her husband David was the lawyer for the show, and her husband's cousin, Eddie Greene, was the host. She also knew its dark side: Morris Chumsky, the gangster businessman; Sophia, who danced on the show and bewitched Eddie, and Sophia's uncle, who was head of the Vice Squad and wanted Eddie dead.
It was just a matter of time until there were murders, investigations, and great personal loss for Naomi.
Enter the world of Rage Begets Murder where business, politics and crime intersect.
Advance Praise
“Marshall Stein has pulled off an author’s tour-de-force in his debut novel. Set in and around Philadelphia, the city native son David Goodis turned into a jungle of noir, RAGE BEGETS MURDER follows the strangely intertwined destinies of two extended families–one Jewish, the other Italian–during the early years of dance-party television. Race relations clash with under-aged girls searching for any career path leading them out of their stifling neighborhoods and suffocating parents. The dialogue is crisp, clear, and dead-on for the period, making RAGE BEGETS MURDER a strong contender in the Best First-Novel sweepstakes.”
- Jeremiah Healy, author of RIGHT TO DIE and SHALLOW GRAVES
