Billy Castle, twenty-five and commuting to Manhattan from Queens to tend bar, is just trying to keep his alcoholic mother afloat and outrun the reputation his father left behind. Special Agent Dean Willis has been living in the aftermath of a night he can't remember-the same night his wife and daughter disappeared. And Archer Stone, the untouchable king of Uptown nightlife, has built an empire off everything except the liquor he serves.

Billy's first week at The Palace ends in witnessing an act of violence he wasn't meant to see. What follows drags him back into the gravitational field his family has orbited for generations-one where power moves through bloodlines like disease, violence is a language passed from father to son, and the machinery of the American dream runs on liquidating its own.

A literary crime epic steeped in Greek tragedy, told through an ensemble of intersecting lives bound by ambition and ruin, Jack Chase has written an American epic for the present moment: brutal, hypnotic, and as hard to put down as it is to forget.

For readers of Cormac McCarthy, Don DeLillo, and Denis Johnson.
