About the book
About The Dead Know Nothing
Father James Franklin drinks his first Budweiser in thirteen years and ends up framed for attempted murder. The Catholic leadership in Boston that have been clamoring for a reason to fire him now have cause. A rekindling of a childhood romance, two more violent attacks, and a congregation uncomfortable with his reformist views each lay a crack in the foundation of his faith. What does a peaceful man do when he’s forced to fight for his life? THE DEAD KNOW NOTHING is "A Confederacy of Dunces" meets "Gone, Baby, Gone". It takes a teaspoon of Kurt Vonnegut and mixes it with the gritty urban mysteries of Dennis Lehane, providing a much needed infusion of comedy into the traditional Boston crime fable.
