The Mafia Mayor

Book excerpt: A politically -charged homicide centered around the mayor, a stripper and a raunchy party at the mayor's Manoogian mansion. Strawbelly is hot, voluptous and regal. A superstar erotic dancer addicted to the drama of the streets, with a penchant for powerful and violent men. Black Jack, the charismatic newly elected mayor brings to office an era of youthful exuberance. His dedication and determination is fueled by his intoxication with power. He uses the mayor's office to run the city as a criminal enterprise that's styled after the Mafia. At the turn of the 21st Century, the city of Detroit is no longer a vibrant metropolis, city of champions and Mecca to the automobile industry. Motown is in dire straights, trapped in a road construction quagmire of never-ending orange barrells and urban blight. A corrupt police force and wayward city council births a mass exodus of the residents. Will Detroit lose control over its water supply? Will the spirit of Detroit survife Black Jack's corrupt administration, and breathe new life into the body of the once resilient Motor City?
