Legendary lawman Wyatt Earp straps on his six-shooter to battle a new
breed of bad man in a new land -- rising gangster Al Capone and his
machine-gun toting killers on the streets of New York City.
It's the 1920s, the glittering jazz age, and the beginning of the
blood-soaked prohibition-era. The wild west and the gunfight at the OK
Corral are fading memories, even for aging lawman Wyatt Earp, who is
toiling in Los Angeles as a private eye and a technical consultant on
cowboy movies. When Doc Holliday's son, who is running a glitzy
nightclub in Manhattan, is targeted by the mob, Wyatt gladly leaves the
tamed west for the wild east to defend him, pitting himself against a
brutal, young gangster named Al Capone
"Wyatt Earp versus Al Capone - a wild, exciting ride." David Morrell,
author of FIRST BLOOD
"Highly entertaining....Collins has outdone himself in this tale of bad
guys, bullets, and booze set at the start of the Prohibition era."
Library Journal
"Wyatt Earp vs. Al Capone - it might seem an improbable situation, but
it could have happened, and Collins makes it work in this wild blend of
classic Western and gangster characters, all set in Prohibition-era New
York City" Philadelphia Inquirer
