Starred Review from Kirkus!

My book got a starred review from Kirkus!! I am over the moon. Maybe I will be able to relax for a few minutes and bask in the joy. “It’s a badly needed look at a societal problem that goes largely unaddressed while politicians outdo each other with tough-on-crime rhetoric … an invaluable roadmap to how, and why, urban “renewal” can go tragically wrong. Solid in-depth reporting with a polemical kick.”

A view of the area in East New York called the Triangle, where Livonia and New Lots Avenues meet. This is looking west. My book begins with something terrible that took place here in 1966.
