"Narrator Euan Morton’s soft Irish brogue transports listeners to New York City in 1799." (AudioFile Magazine)
This program includes a bonus interview with the author
From Paddy Hirsch comes a gritty, evocative audiobook about Irish gangs in New York at the end of the 18th century
Seven years after a financial crisis nearly topples America, traders chafe at government regulations on Wall Street, racial tensions are rising, and corrupt financiers make back-door deals with politicians...1799 was a hell of a year.
Thanks to Alexander Hamilton, America recovered from the panic on the Devil's Half Mile (aka Wall Street), but the young country still finding its way. When young lawyer Justy Flanagan returns to prove his father's innocence, he exposes a massive fraud that has already claimed lives, and one the perpetrators are determined to keep secret at any cost. The body count is rising, and the looming crisis could topple the nation.
A thrilling, unrelenting audiobook that will appeal to fans of early American history and the renegade characters who determined its shape.
"A thriller with strong, multifaceted heroes and villains, tight plotting which rattles along in a city where you can smell the horse droppings and hear the authentic voices." (Patrick Taylor, New York Times best-selling author of the Irish Country Doctor series)

Very realistic

Story, 3 stars. Often found it plodding, and though the violence was probably true to the period, I found it gratuitous after awhile
Performance and author's historical notes 5 stars. I wish all authors of historical fiction would give this kind of afterword. The only thing missing is a brief bibliography, but he is forgiven for this oversite.
author's historical notes best part!
