December 23, 1999—while the world braces for Y2K chaos, Police Chief Tom Miller faces a nightmare in the quiet town of New Hope, Pennsylvania. A nightclub owner’s body is found with markings identical to murders he solved years ago. The original killer is on death row but vowed the killings would continue. Is it a copycat—or something more sinister? For Tom, the case may be his only chance to catch his father’s killer before the new century begins.
Sitting with me on a freshly-stripped and torched new Cadillac Eldorado convertible, Gem tosses her lustrous, dark auburn hair from side to side and offers a toast to the chaos and carnage that have enveloped the Kensington neighborhood of North Philadelphia.
“Welcome to the American underworld, Robbs, in its entire rancid, horrific splendor. You’re witnessing the fall of a modern day Roman Empire and punks like us have the soundtrack for its destruction.”
About Richard Cucarese
From punk rock anthems to hard-hitting fiction, my life has always been fueled by passion and rebellion. Growing up, punk music shaped my voice and inspired my writing—whether in song lyrics, poetry, political commentary, or novels like my PUNKS trilogy. I’ve marched for causes from poverty to AIDS awareness, worked in steel mills, and fought for what I believe in. My work is raw, real, and rooted in the belief that art can challenge the system and tell the stories that matter.
