New York Brain

Stansfield Kaplan’s a high-powered celebrity for an extreme New York: rich, handsome, twenty-one, in your face. None of this explains why he decided to represent his native Brooklyn on the city council, but it goes a long way to explain how he got in.

When he decides to turn pro--and make his debut on a high-profile championship undercard--the rest of hell follows suit...and they call out the reserves. It all plays out in a Big Apple where folks still read the paper, wisecracking waitresses staff all-night diners, the Twin Towers stand tall, and celebs rule. Let the games begin!
