Description - Jimmy the Stick by Michael Mayo

.Jimmy Quinn has been many things, thief, bagman, bootlegger, and the man who greased palms from City Hall to the precinct house. "It's been a good life," he likes to say, though his ruined knee and a lifetime of enemies tell a different story.A one-time runner for Arnold Rothstein and a "known associate" of Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky, Jimmy now runs one of Manhattan's finest speakeasies. It's a quieter existence, until the Lindbergh baby disappears and the whole country goes mad.When Jimmy's old partner Walter Spencer, now tied to the powerful Pennyweight Petroleum fortune, asks him to protect his young wife and child in rural New Jersey, Jimmy reluctantly agrees. Their son may be next on the kidnapper's list.But the Garden State offers no refuge. Behind the manicured lawns and oil money respectability lurk secrets just as treacherous as the back alleys of New York. And as Jimmy steps back into a world of crime, betrayal, and violence, he discovers that his past isn't done with him, and this time, it may kill him. Find out what really happened to Jimmy today!
