When Isaac Bell’s boss and lifelong friend Joseph Van Dorn is shot and nearly killed leading the high-speed chase of a rum-running vessel, Bell swears to him that he will hunt down the lawbreakers, but he doesn’t know what he is getting into. When a witness to Van Dorn’s shooting is executed in a ruthlessly efficient manner invented by the Russian secret police, it becomes clear that these are no ordinary criminals. Bell is up against a team of Bolshevik assassins and saboteurs - and they are intent on overthrowing the government of the United States.

Publisher's Summary
It is 1906, and in New York City, the Italian crime group known as the Black Hand is on a spree: kidnapping, extortion, arson.
Detective Isaac Bell of the Van Dorn Agency is hired to form a special Black Hand Squad, but the gangsters appear to be everywhere - so much so that Bell begins to wonder if there are imitators, criminals using the name for the terror effect. And then the murders begin, each one of a man more powerful than the last, and, as Bell discovers to his dismay, the ultimate target may be the most powerful man of all.

The Gangster....
Another excellent Isaac Bell adventure, although I felt the story was a little weaker than some of the other books in the Bell series.
Still a very well written adventure, narrated beautifully by Scott Brick.
The Isaac Bell series are a fantastic collection of stories, and ones that you won't want to put down. Each are standalone, although better enjoyed in the series order, in my opinion.

Absolutely brilliant book with the benefit of Brick's world class delivery.
My only issue is that it seemed too short and lacking in as much detail as the first couple of books.
Still, a brilliant and immersive treat.
