In the trilogy’s second novel, Jimmy travels a harsh road back from Key West to Belmar. Old suspicions are confirmed, party bars turn ugly, and a bizarre tragedy marks the summer’s turning point. Ronny, June’s companion, becomes July’s antagonist. As Jimmy tries to accommodate Alice, and despite old and new heartaches, he attains his dream job, finds touching rapport with a surrogate daughter, and reconnects with his perceptive, gutsy self.
"In Boardwalk Man Jimmy Hanlon faces and comes to terms with some of his demons. Mick Bennett shows us more of Jimmy's character in a very real way. In this book more of Jimmy's Irish Catholic background is explored along with more of Jimmy's past. Can't wait for book 3 and rereading the trilogy again since I blew thru the first two books not being able to restrain myself to find what happens next."
"Nice movement from the first book. Character development is good. I liked the fact that the narrator told his story with feeling and accuracy, and I liked the wider theme development. Peggy cracks me up, and I knew someone exactly like Vinny when I spent time in Belmar. The courage Jimmy shows is my favorite part."
