The New York Goodbye

By Nikki Knight

DJ Jaye Jordan's farewell party at a mobbed-up Manhattan restaurant was a fun night out...until the shooting started. "The New York Goodbye," written by a longtime New York news anchor, with only a little inspiration from her colleagues, takes readers inside two small and dangerous worlds, Angeli's Restaurant and bigtime radio. And this time, it's not the goodfellas settling scores.
