The Chief

By Colin W. Gillis

An audacious hard-boiled shocker: THE CHIEF is a grand old Boston Irish cop story. Charming young Liam Giles, police officer who also passed the bar in 1930s north shore Boston, excels as an unrelenting cop who thinks like a lawyer. Arrests produce convictions. The quintessential Marine, heedless of death, obsessed with the mission, he's loyal to a fault. Giles gets it done. No matter what. But when he goes too far, he risks everything.

Giles meets his match in Miss Kiley, the auburn-haired Celtic beauty who loves him fiercely, but even she is hard-pressed to save him from himself. Organized crime rages out of control in the city. As the new Chief, Giles rallies his men, slamming their operations hard. But the Black Hand threatens to obliterate his clan. Will Giles make it out alive? For fans of mysteries and police procedurals, THE CHIEF is as satisfying as an icy pint of Guinness.
