N.Y.: Mysterious Press, 1993. 1st ed., with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in dust jacket. SIGNED COPY. New England setting. His second book following the award winning Box Nine. "Like many of the old factory towns in New England, Quinsigamond has seen better days. Racial tensions, poverty, and crime are the day-to-day realities. Into this maelstrom of late 20th-century angst appear the "jammers"--radio pirates whose irreverent subculture mocks the crumbling of the American dream. This subterranean community is populated by citizens like the midget ballroom dance champs, a stuttering 15-year-old who dreams of conquering the world via the power of his speech, and the mysterious Ronnie, whose Libido Liveline call-in show makes her the object of jammer lust. A series of violent incidents by a deranged ex-FBI agent bent on righting this aberrant society brings battle-hardened Detective Hannah Shaw on the scene to restore order. O'Connell ( Box Nine , Mysterious Pr., 1992) mixes colorful characters, a quirky plot, and plenty of action in this refreshing tale that will please the jaded reader." -- Library Journal.
