Summary:
"From 1854 to 1895, Byrnes rose through the ranks of New York City's police department to become one of the most celebrated detectives in American history, a giant who captured Manhattan's Jack the Ripper copycat killer, solved the murder of prostitute Maude Merrill, cracked the largest heist in American history, and "shaped not just the New York City Detective Bureau but the template for detective work ... in every modern American metropolis," according to the New York Times"--Back cover.
