C'était l'enfant chéri des démocrates : Isaac Sidel, maire de New York et ex-commissaire principal, sur le point d'être choisi comme candidat de son parti à la vice-présidence. Il devait se présenter en tandem avec J. Michael Storm, le tsar du base-ball qui, à l'issue des primaires, l'avait emporté sur des sénateurs et des milliardaires... Le pays était tombé amoureux de ces deux-là... Mais il y a un problème : Michael Storm est infiniment moins populaire qu'Isaac et ce dernier va avoir pour tâche - rude tâche - de contribuer à donner une meilleure image de son colistier tout au long de la campagne. On ne dira pas comment il va s'y prendre, car on ne raconte pas un roman de Jerome Charyn. On entre dans un monde de crimes, de violence, de folie, mais en même temps de poésie et de tendresse. Autour d'Isaac Sidel, son personnage fétiche, héros de dix de ses romans, gravitent Anastasia, son grand amour, la lumineuse Marianna, douze ans, la fille de Michael, ainsi qu'Aliocha, douze ans aussi, génial peintre des rues, des voyous, des politiciens véreux, des gardes du corps dont il vaut mieux se méfier... On se laisse entraîner au rythme très jazzy de son écriture, tout en ayant bien envie de lui poser la question : jusqu'où ira Isaac Sidel ? Sur la plus haute marche ?

After decades of madness in the Bronx, Isaac Sidel visits the craziest state in the country Isaac Sidel is too popular to be America’s vice president. Once the New York Police Department commissioner, he became the most beloved mayor in the city’s history—famous for his refusal to surrender his Glock, and for his habit of disappearing for months at a time to fight crime at street level. So when baseball czar J. Michael Storm asks Sidel to join him on the election’s Democratic ticket, the two wild men romp to an unprecedented landslide. But as the president-elect’s mandate goes off the rails—threatened by corruption, sex, and God knows what else—he tires of being overshadowed by Sidel, and dispatches him to a place from which tough politicians seldom return: Texas. In the Lone Star state, Sidel confronts rogue astrologers, accusations of pedophilia, and a dimwitted assassin who doesn’t know when to take an easy shot. If this Bronx bomber doesn’t watch his step, he risks making vice-presidential history by getting killed on the job.

But when his father dies, Holden departs for Europe, to live in seclusion until his money runs out. And it’s then that his father’s real business comes to call. The old man was a bumper too, but he killed for a slightly higher class of criminal. And now that he’s gone, his employers want his son to take his place. Holden would like to to refuse, but murder is in his blood, and no man can resist his family legacy.
