What to expect
When he goes undercover to bust mobsters who have infiltrated the sports world, Butch Karp glides effortlessly from the criminal courts he dominates as a prosecutor to the basketball court. Police have found the body of a pro basketball star in a car on the edge of the city, the glove compartment stuffed with cocaine. The investigation leads to a sophisticated ring of sports fixing and drug trafficking, and Karp's own background as a college basketball standout helps him close in on the crooks. But while Karp obsesses over a case that fulfills his childhood dreams, his wife and crime-fighting partner, Marlene, and unborn child will fall into mortal danger.
Critics Review
“A masterful thriller from cover to cover!”
“[A] witty, highly intricate big-city police thriller…keeps you guessing…hard to put down.”
“Extraordinary…Sexy dialogue, rousing action, pungent observation on the New York criminal justice system…A wild, exhilarating ride.”
“Laced with a nervy, street-smart cynicism…A consistently entertaining thriller.”
“Tanenbaum’s edgy exploration of a two-career, Italian-Jewish marriage, and Ciampi and Karp’s credible relationships with secondary characters give Material Witness a satisfying ring of truth.”
“Plenty of intrigue, action, and Tanenbaum’s usual snappy folk and dialogue.”
