Sam Blair Mystery,

At the end of Prohibition, Kansas City, Missouri was known as "Crime Capital USA.” It was a wide-open anything-goes town run by a corrupt political boss in bed with the Sicilian mob. In this legal thriller based on true events, Assistant US District Attorney Sam Blair witnesses the Union Station Massacre—where three gangsters mow down a prisoner and four lawmen.

Despite talk of a failed rescue attempt, he’s sure the prisoner was murdered. To learn why, Sam must survive attempts on his life, avoid getting entangled in an FBI coverup, and battle psychological baggage from the unsolved murder of his sister, Midge.

His job is made all the harder when he is called to prosecute the head of the local mob for tax evasion, and the city’s political boss for bribery. And what will Sam do when his two best friends betray him, and he learns the shocking truth that links the Union Station Massacre to his sister’s death?
