A gripping tale of crime and change set against the backdrop of a transforming New York City.
From the acclaimed #1 New York Times bestselling author and two-time Pulitzer Prize winner Colson Whitehead comes a vibrant and captivating story that brings 1980s New York to life. In 1981, the city is shaking off financial ruin, fueled by aggressive real estate booms and a Wall Street unleashed by the Reagan era’s cutthroat capitalism. Up in Harlem, Ray Carney, a thriving business owner and expert fence, has just earned the title of Sterling Furniture's Dealer of the Month.
With his signature masterful prose, Whitehead paints a vivid picture of a city in transformation, where gleaming skyscrapers tower above while displaced souls take refuge in abandoned tunnels below. Cool Machine sweeps across New York-from the heights of Windows on the World to the streets of Sugar Hill-revealing that beneath the surface lies the true story of the city and its unforgettable characters.
