Burned-Out in Brooklyn — Douglas DiNunzio

When Brooklyn private eye Eddie Lombardi offers to help the brother of a pretty young woman settle his astronomical gambling debts, he doesn't expect much trouble. And, when he offers to help a freak show troupe from Coney Island get free of a brutal manager, that's also expected to be business as usual. That the two cases might be related, with possibly fatal consequences, is not on his radar.
