The debut novel in a "riveting" Prohibition-era crime series "for readers who follow Kelli Stanley's Miranda Corbie series or Reed Farrel Coleman's Moe Prager books" (Library Journal).
On the streets of Prohibition-era New York, Jersey Leo is one of a kind. A biracial albino known as "Snowball," he makes his living as a bartender at a mob-run speakeasy. Abandoned by his White mother and frowned upon by his Black father, a former boxing champ, Jersey's about to discover why he was always warned against working at a dive bar owned by one of New York's most notorious gangsters.
Duped into purchasing counterfeit moonshine, or "sugar pop moon," with his boss's money, Jersey must go undercover to track down the bootlegger who took him in-before his boss does him in. The clues lead him to Philadelphia, where his attempt to lure out the cheat nearly gets him killed. With a price on his head, Jersey seeks help from the only man he can trust, his father. But as Jersey and his dad delve into the origins of the mysterious sugar pop moon, stunning secrets about Jersey's past come to light-truths that could pave the way to a very different future for Jersey. . . .

"Harsh as a slug of 190-proof moonshine." -Rebecca Cantrell, New York Times-bestselling author of A City of Broken Glass
"Authentic period, savvy style, and memorable characters." -Kelli Stanley, award-winning author of City of Dragonsand City of Secrets
"Sure to appeal to fans of Mickey Spillane, Raymond Chandler, and . . . Robert Fate's edgy Baby Shark series." -Booklist
