Danny Cassidy couldn"t remember if he"d killed the cop. So begins one man"s journey through his fifty-year-old history and conscience in Long Time Gone, Denis Hamill"s gripping novel set in the back streets and alleyways of Brooklyn, U.S.A. It"s the year 2001 when Danny, a divorced journalist, returns to his old neighborhood for his father"s funeral. He"s spent all of his adult life trying to leave Brooklyn behind him -- along with all the drugs, music, and other psychedelic memories from the sixties spent on Hippie Hill. But now that the box of rain has been opened there"s no turning back, and Danny must face some painful truths about the woman he used to love -- and her father, a police officer, whom he may or may not have killed. By turns a thriller, a detective story, and a coming-of-age tale, Long Time Gone is a bittersweet love letter to a lost New York that no reader will soon forget.
