Conrad Voort's family members have enforced the law in New York City for three centuries, since Manhattan was a Dutch colony. Raised from childhood to be a detective, he heads a vast cop clan, with its own code of honor and obligation. But now he faces his most dangerous adversary yet -- a man who has the power to destroy the family and will stop at nothing to prevent Voort from uncovering a terrible new kind of crime. Detective Voort and his beautiful fiancée, Camilla, are kayaking New York City's Hell's Gate, a treacherous section of the East River and graveyard for several centuries' worth of ships, when they spot a body floating in the water. The death seems related to a tragedy that happened in Hell's Gate over two hundred years ago. But could it also involve something more modern, menacing, and international in scope? With the help of TV producer Camilla and his partner, Mickie, Voort pursues the clues. But something doesn't feel right about the trail the dead man left behind. What starts out to be a complex investigation takes a sinister turn when Voort falls into the clutches of a man whose bloodless methods of persuasion have Voort stricken with real terror, for his family, his fiancée, and himself. But the man with the dead voice leaves Voort with few choices. Psychologically crippled, he can no longer confide in his fiancée or his partner. He must ignore the long-standing law of the clan -- and his brother officers -- and take action alone. Breathlessly paced and filled with Ethan Black's trademark explosive action, At Hell's Gate is a spellbinding new thriller that follows a man fighting to find the truth, save his family, and redeem himself.

Depicts a mans exploration of the landscape, history, and toponymy of Hell Gate, a notorious stretch of water in New York Citys East River. Part history and part memoir, Hell Gate tells of a mans excursions along and through Hell Gate, a narrow stretch of water in New York Citys East River, notorious for dangerous currents, shipwrecks, and its melancholic islands and rocks. Drawn to the area by his fascination with its namefrom the Dutch Hellegat,translated into English as both bright passage and hellholewhat begins as a set of casual walks for Michael Nichols becomes an exploration of landscape and history as he traces these idyllic and hellish images in an attempt to discover Hell Gates hidden character and the meaning of its elusive name. Using a loosely constructed set of sketches organized as a kind of tour along the edge of the river and then from a rowboat in the river, Nichols describes scenes and events as they present themselves, mixing history and lore with contemporary scenes. Hell Gate is a great historical underpinning of colonial culture, as well as a sound landscape metaphor for America in all ages, and one that is vastly under-covered. This book is passionately written and deeply researched. Mike Freeman, author of Drifting: Two Weeks on the Hudson

"One year of my life was taken from me. But I was aware of every minute of every day of that year. Which can only be described as a living hell. I came to understand a person's given time, good or bad, is important. I recognized this was a part of my life and I did live it." Captain of one of the world's mega-yachts, Michael Churchward was suddenly arrested and thrown into a Turkish prison for a crime he did not commit. This is the story of a man's journey through a labyrinth of injustice and corruption in two foreign countries, and three despicable prisons, fighting for his life. A story of endurance, survival, and the human spirit.
