The Italian Club: A Mystery Novel Based on a Real Place

By Jeff Cox

W A R N I N G !THE ITALIAN CLUB is a novel that contains indecent language, beer drinking, "boom-boom," ill-gotten riches, shocking romance, many instances of political incorrectness, outlaw bikers, drop-dead-gorgeous bartenders, beefy huge dudes, life, death, firetrucks, bar talk of dubious merit, and humor. Look out. You might hurt yourself laughing.Crazy things are happening in Oxton, home of news reporter Joe Lorenzo and his buddies at the Italian-American Club: Zippo the firefighter, Cadillac, club steward Lynn, bartenders Tracy and Kimmy, ne'er-do-well Speedy, and Frank the "salesman." Outlaw biker contract killers are looking for a guy named Pazz, an ex-convict and ex-lover of Tracy who, meanwhile, is trying to break up with her wealthy and weird current lover, Derek. When Pazz shows up one night, he exhibits an interest in not just Tracy, but her place of employment, the Club. Why? Because there is a fortune buried somewhere inside the Club's century-old building and only Pazz knows where it might be, based on a death-bed whisper of his cellmate.
