Code of Vengeance

by Charles Kenney

The murder of Boston's most beloved politician, Councillor Philip Stewart, is nothing less than an abomination. While the police struggle to solve a crime with no witnesses, no clues, and no apparent motive, the Boston Post dispatches crack investigative reporter Frank Cronin to chronicle the slaughter of a modern saint.

But at every turn, Cronin finds only more damning evidence that behind the hallowed public persona of Philip Stewart lay a dark heart of greed and corruption. As his shattering revelations draw fire from Boston's most powerful figures, Cronin vows to expose the whole truth. And as likely suspects multiply, a shocking tale of evil and retribution unfolds. . . .

Councillor Stewart has been killed. Everyone thought he was a Saint, however, he was far, far, far removed from Sainthood. and a young newsman was about to prove it. However who dun it, and why? Was it for the lies and the blackmail, or the ruination of peoples lives. What else could be revealed about this wicked man?
