The Inside Story Author:William LeRoy This sequel to William LeRoy's debut novel, THE SAME OLD STORY, carries on with that "gripping tale of suspense and romance" praised by Kirkus Reviews as "an engaging thriller." Johnny D'Agostino, a young woman, has been murdered in the Boston Public Garden. Peter Angelo, a police detective, and Matt Finley, an admittedly jealous lover, have ac... more »cused each other of committing the crime. Each bases his claim on the other's misperception of a love triangle involving the victim's relationship with Finley's former girlfriend, Frankie Fitzgerald. Now, Captain Patrick Riley, Boston's new Chief of Police, stumbles into the tangled web, and encounters other allegations directed at him. In the eyes of most, Riley is an especially dedicated police officer, resolutely on the side of the angels if not actually one of them. Others, however, see him as a manipulative and corrupt old man, "Captain Wily," who by intervening in the D'Agostino case is himself "doing the devil's work." In the course of searching for evidence to support a charge of murder against one of his own, Riley confronts open skepticism of his motives from all sides; and ultimately faces his own innermost doubts about the righteousness of the life he has led.« less
