A gritty political thriller in which a race for governor is rocked by sex scandals, mob hits, and one candidate’s blind ambition . . .

To stop the legalization of big-time casino gambling in Rhode Island, mob boss Sal Tarantino calls in debts owed by some of the state’s most prominent politicians, clearing the way for reluctant gubernatorial candidate Doug Fiore.

But when Fiore’s primary opponent, who’s leading in the polls, is gunned down in a bar, the public presumption is that the Tarantino family had reasons to want him dead. Things get even stickier when the husband of one of Fiore’s mistresses wins the Democratic primary—a man who possesses secret recordings that implicate Fiore in two affairs.

As the race draws to a close, the candidates are in a dead heat. Fiore, who will now stop at nothing to win, moves to nail down his victory with an audacious scheme—involving both his mistresses . . .

“Neo-noirish . . . [My Honorable Brother] doesn’t give us many people to love but there’s plenty to like in it, nonetheless.” —The Providence Journal
