Kuhusu kitabu pepe hiki

The year is 1976. Veteran New Haven homicide detective Frank Suchy has finally learned to cope with the demons in his life and the daily pressure of ‘the job’—being exposed to every manner of death that could possibly befall someone—all the while celebrating his third year of sobriety.

But when his best friend’s child is brutally murdered in broad daylight outside a downtown shopping mall, his world begins to deteriorate, bringing back the nightmares that he thought were locked away long ago. Recollections of his brief friendship with rock singer Jim Morrison (who he befriended at the 1967 New Haven concert where the singer was arrested onstage), and all the other terrible memories he had worked so hard to suppress…come pouring back.

To make matters worse, there are external forces that threaten Detective Suchy’s wellbeing. Pressure from bureaucrats and the political elite to curtail any exposure of the case to the public in the wake of New Haven’s recent massive Urban Renewal Project, and the simmering racial and social divide between the minority communities against the police department in particular, send Detective Suchy over the edge. He spirals out of control in a desperate race against time to solve this horrendous case, hoping to somehow redeem his soul—and the city’s, for that matter—even if it means laying down his own life in the process.

What Detective Suchy eventually uncovers is the seedy, horrifying underbelly of the 1970s.

Kuhusu mwandishi

Dion Baia was born in New Haven and graduated from SUNY Purchase College’s Conservatory of Film in 2001. He immediately began working in the industry, specifically behind the camera in television at Fox News Channel, doing in-studio audio on shows like Your World with Neil Cavuto, Hannity & Colmes, The Kelly File with Megyn Kelly, and Hannity, among others. 

In 2011, Dion started his podcasting career and began periodically appearing on camera, performing tiny self-written comedic vignettes on FNC to promote the newly formed Fox Business Network, encouraging viewers to call their television providers to “Demand It” (FBN). In 2014 he graduated to contributing weekly to panel segments on Your World, with ongoing involvement, and cofounded the Saturday Night Movie Sleepovers Podcast, a nostalgic deep-dive into the films that helped shaped his life.

Dion currently lives in Westchester, New York, with his wife Helen Grace and their son Babe, a Yorkshire Terrier, and Tofu ‘the Turkey’ Roberta, their cat.
