Showing results for "The Innocent" in Private Investigators

They call him Keeper, but lately Jack Marconi has specialized in losing things. Last year, he lost his wife in a mysterious traffic accident, and ever since, he's felt like he's losing his mind. As the warden of the maximum security Green Haven Prison, home to 2,500 of New York's most hardened criminals, Marconi can't afford to drop focus, even for an instant. But he's been slipping up on the job, and he's tormented by flashbacks to the Attica uprising. All of which makes him ripe for the role of patsy when a convicted cop killer named Eduardo Vasquez stages a daring breakout on his watch.

O c'entra la malavita organizzata, che senza rumore sta entrando anche negli stadi? Le indagini segnano il passo. Forse allora bisogna scavare nella vita privata del morto.
