(In working-class Bay Ridge, Michael drives for a car serv...)
In working-class Bay Ridge, Michael drives for a car service and gives lifts to his father, a former sanitation worker and current small-time bookie. He has a friend with a heroin habit and a longtime girlfriend who expects they'll get married one of these days. Michael spends most of his time on the familiar streets where he grew up, but now he's crossing the bridge into Manhattan for some college classes where he meets a seductive female classmate who seems to come from a whole different world. He is pulled in two directions, but it seems like he has time to figure it all out until he finds himself in the periphery of a murder that will change his destiny forever.

Tim McLoughlin was born in 1959 in New York City, New York, United States.
Tim McLoughlin attended New York University but had to leave when his father suffered from a heart attack.
Tim McLoughlin works as a court officer at the Kings County Supreme Court in Brooklyn, New York. When McLoughlin published his first novel, Heart of the Old Country (2001), the comparisons began between his life and that of his protagonist, Mike. Like McLoughlin, Mike grows up in Brooklyn and, instead of going to college, ends up driving for an illegal car service: a job that brings him in close contact with the violence of the mob world. Unlike Mike, McLoughlin went on to work in the Brooklyn court system. When life as a court officer began to wear on him, McLoughlin enrolled in a YMCA class with author Kaylie Jones. The class encouraged McLoughlin to begin work on Heart of the Old Country. Tim McLoughlin's novel, Heart of the Old Country, is the basis for the motion picture The Narrows.
McLoughlin is also the editor of anthologies Brooklyn Noir and Brooklyn Noir 2: The Classics and is co-editor of Brooklyn Noir 3: Nothing but the Truth. His short fiction and essays appeared in numerous literary magazines and anthologies.
