Publisher's Note
A scheming, down-on-his-luck sports promoter, Bobby the Lip tries to come up with a big score by arranging--and fixing--a bout between the reigning heavyweight boxing champ and a young African-American contender, only to find himself caught in a web of corruptions, underworld goons, police probes, and enthusiastic fans. A first novel.

Industry reviews
"A retro noir valentine to big-city, small-time boxing....Fainthearted readers may want to wait for the film...to sort out the two-dozen subplots."
Kirkus Reviews  (02/01/2001)

"Though Monroe gradually ratchets up the tension...the novel is slow getting started. Instead, character and plot development take a back seat to hard-boiled banter and too many scenes of bookies at work."
New York Times Book Review - Tom Beer (07/29/2001)
