Tento autor, původně scenárista, se později věnoval psaní románů. Jeho styl je charakteristický silným vypravěčským tahem a často se noří do hlubin lidské psychiky. Jeho díla zkoumají komplexní témata a zanechávají v čtenářích silný dojem. Obzvláště se zaměřuje na nuance mezilidských vztahů a morální dilemata.

"How's it goin'?".. "Up and down and 'round and 'round. You?" "Sixes and sevens" Plump blue-eyed Italian looking man drops dead right in front of red-haired Irish narrator Jimmy Flannery during their exercise class. Teddy's membership name is "Porky Pig", and his pockets hold no ID, yet old Italian lire "30 pieces of silver". First a police chief asks the newly elected ward rep for help, then says back off. Meanwhile, very pregnant wife Mary counsels pregnant poor teens in their 8th floor walkup. Always curious, Jimmy runs up against Chicago big boys--and an underworld warlord.
