A Gangster's Remorse

By Jerry B Sanders

From war to organized crime...

Marine Corporal Jack Moore came of age in a foxhole on the island of Okinawa in 1945. After returning to his hometown in Louisiana after the war, he unintentionally commits the murder of a local police officer. Okinawa and the murder created in him the belief that his purpose in life was a life of crime. In New Orleans, he found the foothold he needed that would showcase his abilities as a leader and a killer. He was extraordinarily gifted in his newfound life of crime. Jack changes his name to attain anonymity. That change is the beginning of a new life with a new attitude and demeanor. His new personality makes him a formidable figure in the city's underworld. Now known as Cole Parker, he's the new kingpin of the French Quarter. However, the longer he operated as a criminal, the more his conscience began to re-emerge, and so did a desire to become legitimate. A horrific event involving his family leads him down a path of no return.
