About This Book

Detroit is hemorrhaging; a criminal juggernaut has brought the city to its kneesâ€"the Mafia has outwitted, outmaneuvered what is widely known as the nation’s most corrupt police force. The city’s social fabric is torn beyond repair, neighborhood gangs are rampantâ€"unethical political officials offer no helpâ€"the situation is hopeless!

Yet, buried deep in small neighborhood enclaves are pockets of people unwilling to succumb to these evil forces; they’re clawing for survival, an uphill fight against all oddsâ€"to save their homes, their dignity, their way of lifeâ€"they are the Detroit Thorn Birds.

The Detroit Thorn Birds are driven beyond reason, exhibiting the same levels of extraordinary commitment as did Colleen McCullough’s characters in her 1977 best-selling novel, The Thorn Birds.

This modern-day work of historical fiction, which also takes place in 1977, follows the steps of real-to-life men and women. Unfettered by intimidation, extortion, and violence, the Detroit Thorn Birds challenge the Mafia.
