Legal thriller king John Grisham (The Firm) mates with romance genre queen Nora Roberts (The Next Always). Because it’s only a dream, Nora also wraps with mob master Mario Puzo (The Godfather). The child they spawn creates terrific pleasure reading for any beach or comfort zone and is named Frederick Schofield.
So you think you know Atlantic City. A few of us may. Even fewer know the way it really was, the way it could or should have been, and what tomorrows bring.
For years, I represented more sex workers in the seashore gambling resort than any other lawyer, meaning I defended more hookers than any lawyer in the world. They were not the only souls who sifted through my office door. Perhaps I was a species of champion for both the good and the gutter snipes. Perhaps.
I know and love the town. Dig into my bag of insights and savor 70 heart-stirring years. You'll find them in The Boardwalkers.
Happy reading and best wishes! Fred
