In September 1969, Sportcoat, a cranky old church deacon, enters the courtyard of the Cause Houses housing project in south Brooklyn and shoots the local drug dealer at point-blank range. This act of violence sets off a chain of events that lies at the heart of the story. McBride vividly portrays the lives of those affected by the shooting: the victim, the African American and Latinx residents who witnessed the incident, white neighbors, local cops, members of the Five Ends Baptist Church, the neighborhood's Italian mobsters, and Sportcoat himself. As the narrative unfolds, it reveals the interconnectedness of these characters in the tumultuous landscape of 1960s New York. When the truth finally surfaces, McBride illustrates that not all secrets should remain hidden and that facing change with courage is essential for growth. He emphasizes that love's seeds are found in hope and compassion. With masterful storytelling and a deep faith in humanity, McBride crafts a novel that is as engaging as his previous works, showcasing that love and faith reside within us all.
