Welcome to the website of John Mackie, creator of NYPD Detective Sergeant Thornton Savage and author of MANHATTAN SOUTH, MANHATTAN NORTH, and EAST SIDE. And his latest...WEST SIDE.In a Manhattan bar, two strangers pick up a young man--a soon-to-be-dead look-alike for one of them. Later, when a patient dies in the office of a West Side physician, the NYPD demands an autopsy. But the death is ruled a simple heart attack. The body and any potential evidence are cremated, the insurance company pays a million and a half to the beneficiary--and a perfect fraud is complete. But now the partners in crime are thinking that one perfect scam deserves another. All they need is their next victim....
