Series: The Quinsigamond Quintet
The scene is Quinsigamond, a decaying New England factory town, a model locale of turn-of-the-century chaos. An activist priest meets a grisly death in his own cathedral. The crime has all the hallmarks of a routine Bangkok Park gang killing. But the perp is no everyday low-life but a demented ex-FBI agent named Speer in search of the jammers, particularly the infamous O’Zebedee brothers who have been hijacking local radio airwaves with their singular brand of subversive diatribe.
Detective Hannah Shaw, Bangkok Park’s undisputed overseer, tracks Speer’s enraged quest to Wireless, the funky retro-radio nightclub and epicentre of the diverse jammer subculture. Shaw and/or the Wireless crew must stop the defrocked Fed or fall prey to a campaign of censorship, violence and death.
