Saint Mudd: A Novel of Gangsters and Saints | Steve Thayer
2 posts
A haunting story of a dying columnist for a dying newspaper in city wallowing in the Great Depression. St. Paul was home to gangsters like John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson, and Ma Barker?s boys. Grover Mudd, the city?s premier reporter, wants nothing more than to put them away forever. With the reluctant help of the F.B.I., Mudd targets the killers with his own brand of terror. It is a high-stakes, high-risk gamble for the soul of a city, a game in which Grover Mudd could end up a saint?or maybe a corpse.
