Dickie is still off duty after being shot when two detectives knock on his door and begin asking questions. A man has been killed, and the detectives have homed in on Floyd. Dickie assures them there's been a big misunderstanding, but when Floyd is nowhere to be found, only more questions arise.

A manhunt begins, and it doesn't look good for Floyd and his new partner, Mongo.

The City of the Crosses is a short story that takes place chronologically between the first and second books in the Dickie Floyd Detective Novels series, A Good Bunch of Men and Door to a Dark Room, filling the gap for the year Dickie is off recovering from gunshot wounds.

"I started it and could not stop. The author's writing style captures the moment of each situation and transports the reader right into the story. - Moon Mullen

"His storytelling is seamless, one chapter flows easily and logically into the next. His dialogue is spot on the way long-time partners speak to each other, very much like a long-term marriage. Outstanding!! - Anthony Argott
