Book excerpt: The highly anticipated follow-up to The Swing Voter of Staten Island, and the second in Nersesian's series of novels offering an alternative history of New York. Robert Moses was reponsible for creating contemporary New York's infrastructure, but he did so at the cost of many neighbourhoods. In this novel, Moses has looted his brother's share of the family fortune and set in motion a chain of events that will decimate his life. His brother's rage metamorphoses into an act of terrorism against a brother and city he once cherished.
