2018 New Apple Book Awards: E-BOOK GENERAL FICTION

SOLO MEDALIST WINNER

Father Divine’s Bikes

by Steve Bassett

A gangster war, three murders, a gun-toting paperboy, and the numbers racket melds into a dark, compelling story of two altar boys adrift in a world of poverty and hopelessness from which there is no escape.
A work of character, time and place the novel exposes the rotting underbelly of Newark, a city that profited greatly during World War II, but is unable to cope with the peace that brings joblessness, despair and crime.
Deeply entrenched white enclaves are being squeezed by the mass migration of blacks, and escape routes for poor ethnic whites are rapidly closing. Recent immigrants themselves, they are threatened by an unknown world for which few of them are prepared. The boys live in a world ripe for grifters like Father Divine and his promise of heaven on earth.
It is the first book of The Passaic River Trilogy.
