A romantic literary thriller that moves from Brooklyn mobsters to the lush beauty of Sicily, from murder to escape and a long shot at love and redemption.

Spanning three decades and two continents, soaked in passion, blood and the garish colors of the mean streets, LOWDOWN is a vivid, gripping romantic thriller that follows a twisting road strewn with sorrow and desire, deceit and ecstasy, shocking violence and intimate tenderness.

Industry Reviews

Absorbing... almost non-stop reading because you care about the main characters. Yes, there's violence, but there's also a love story here.

National Public Radio

Affecting... a worthy, character-driven crime novel... Schneider avoids pathos in this vivid tale of two star-crossed lovers.

Publishers Weekly

A novel to fall in love with. A love story with a rugged sense of humor and a tender criminal at its heart. It's also a story of forgiveness, and the novel's final pages will leave you a little bit breathless, a little bit trying not to cry.

Hannah Pittard, author of We Are Too Many

Love, loyalty, and redemption intertwine in Schneider's gripping tale... a narrative that is both intimate and expansive, exploring themes of forgiveness, identity, and the enduring consequences of choices made in a life of crime... A compelling crime drama with a strong emotional core.

BookLife

A brass knuckle knockout of a gangster novel. If you like crime stories to ring true, with characters you can care about even if their moral compasses got shattered somewhere along the way, you'll want to read Lowdown. And, also it's a love story.

Ed Falco, author of The Family Corleone
