The Dorchester Five

“Boston’s historic, multicultural neighborhood of Dorchester provides the backdrop for this engrossing crime novel” from the author of Fickle (Publishers Weekly).

Years ago, after a criminally negligent driver ran down a church lady in Dorchester, an angry group of five people flipped his car over, leaving him disfigured and brain damaged.

Now, a playboy lawyer has plunged from the roof of a Boston hotel, and a Rhode Island strip club owner has been found dead. Both men had been spotted with a mysterious woman who left behind a trail of filterless cigarettes, purple lipstick, and French perfume. And both men were members of the so-called Dorchester Five. Now, homicide cop Marina Papanikitas can’t shake the gnawing feeling that these murders are merely the tip of the iceberg in one femme fatale’s vengeful spree . . .
