Twenty-five-year-old Billy Castle commutes from Queens to Manhattan, tending bar, supporting his alcoholic mother, and trying to escape the shadow of his murdered gangster father. During his first week at The Palace, one of Manhattan’s most exclusive nightclubs, Billy witnesses the execution of an Italian capo—and comes face to face with the club’s untouchable owner, Archer Stone, a feared contrabandist who recognizes Billy’s last name.
Instead of killing him, Archer pulls Billy into a world he has spent his life avoiding—and soon finds dangerously intoxicating.
Meanwhile, amnesiac federal agent Dean Willis is hunting Archer while chasing fragments of a past that may connect all three men—and reveal the truth behind the disappearance of his wife and daughter.
Touted by readers as “a triumph in crime fiction” and “impossible to put down,” Made in America is a sweeping literary crime novel about inheritance, power, and the machinery of the American dream.
