A gangster. A dreamer. One city up for grabs.
In The Fight for Miami, award-winning author Joseph Kovler delivers a pulse-pounding historical thriller set in the glitter and grit of 1920s-30s Miami Beach - where the American Dream goes to war with the American Underworld.
Al Capone, fresh from Chicago's bloody empire, sees Miami as his next conquest. Carl Fisher, the visionary who built the city from sand and swamp, will risk everything to keep it a "sundown town" guarding its privilege behind polite walls. Their clash ignites a battle for power, pride, and control of paradise itself - a fight that mirrors the struggle for America's soul.
Riveting, cinematic, and steeped in real history, The Fight for Miami brings to life an age of corruption, ambition, and transformation - when paradise and vice shared the same shoreline.
