about this book: Authors' praise for Flake – The Trial of a Cop

Richard North Patterson, best-selling novelist: "Told with the authenticity and verve of a key player, the real-life courtroom drama of Flake illuminates, in a particularly gritty and compelling way, the darker recesses of our criminal justice system."

Robert K. Tanenbaum, best-selling novelist: "Read Everyday Murders and Flake – The Trial of a Cop. You'll be entertained and enlightened by a true professional. Hugh Anthony Levine is authentic!"

John Nicholas Iannuzzi, long considered the Dean of the N.Y.C. criminal defense bar, and author of Condemned, Talion, and other crime novels: "Flake" is civilized warfare in the well of the courtroom. Sit with Hugh Anthony Levine, a real-life masterful prosecutor, as he fights cheek to jowl with clever defense counsel protecting a bad cop, as he fights off the N.Y.P.D. blindly closing ranks to protect its own, as he fights to gain the jury's respect for his prostitute witnesses. And he does all that while remaining calm and collected in front of a demanding judge and a doubting jury. Flake is the real thing, written by one who was there on the firing line."
