A Different Kind of Justice

A Different Kind of Justice is a literary suspense novel about Dante Carbone. A brilliant-self-made Italian-American executive from East Utica, New York who has spent a lifetime mastering the the world that looked out of reach to him as a child. Only to begin quietly judging the twelve people who most deeply wounded him, his family and his sense of worth. As those figures from different phases of his life begin dying in ways, that seem accidental, natural, or undeservedly convenient, Dante's boyhood friend Johnny V. Viglio, a seasoned detective, starts to sense a pattern no one else could recognize, because only he knows the full map of Dante's past: the cruel teacher, the neighborhood bullies, the predatory priest, the family tyrant, the heartless girlfriend, the corporate saboteur, the social gatekeeper and the others whose offenses never left him. The novel is both a revenge story and a moral reckoning. Asking whether the law is the only form of justice and when a man of great discipline, intelligence, and loyalty decides that for some sins, justice of another kind is the only kind that remains.
