Wake the Undertaker

Wake the Undertaker is a noir thriller set in an alternative, darker Bay Area city. At nineteen, Colin Specter is an up-and-coming singer at The Lone Palm, a nightclub owned by the Christosâ€™ crime family, headed by Cephalus â€œthe Old Manâ€ Christos and his neâ€™er-do-well son, Gabriel. When Colin falls for Gabrielâ€™s girl, a stripper named Zoey, Gabriel orders the singerâ€™s vocal cords cut and has him take the fall for a crime he didnâ€™t commit. After seven years in prison, Colin is manipulated into working for his former tormentors. Gabriel is now estranged from the Old Man, who has branched into the legitimate, lucrative game of pharmaceuticals and politics, and a war between father and son is spilling onto the streets of Bay City. With the aid of a disgraced former newspaperman, Colin investigates the Old Man and delves into the whereabouts of his former love, only to discover that nothing is what it seems in a rain-drenched underworld. PRAISE â€œThe Lone Palm is not only my kind of barâ€¦Wake the Undertaker is my type of book. Joe Clifford writes with the intensity of a house on fire, and Iâ€™d read his grocery list if he published it.â€ -- Todd Robinson, The Hard Bounce
