THE BARRACKS...
that's what the neighbors called the sprawling Old-Law tenement on Manhattan's East Side. Now empty of all but four apartments, it loomed dark and brooding, a magnet for violence while awaiting destruction.
Clem Regan was one of the four occupants of The Barracks. A simple man, Clem never looked for trouble. But trouble came with the teen-aged Elena-and a knife-wielding, vengeful gang. Then Frankie Zitek, an escaped murderer, found The Barracks a perfect hideout from the police.
From then on, the two threads of violence enmeshed Clem with ever-increasing tension, making his life a nightmare of terror.
All the chilling suspense that made Bad Day at Black Rock such a memorable book and movie distinguishes this latest novel by Michael Niall.
