The bowery slugger audiobook
When Alex Cohen arrives in 1915 America, he seizes the land of opportunity with both hands and grabs it by the throat. But success breeds distrust and Alex must choose between controlling his gang and keeping his friend alive. What would you do if the person you trusted most is setting you up to die at your enemies’ hands?
The first book in the Alex Cohen series is a violent historical novel, which rips through the early years of the Jewish New York mob. Leopold Borstinski’s gripping crime noir beats at the chest of every reader with a bloody fist.

What people are saying
I flew through the book and I was hooked from the beginning.

A wholly developed character with flawless just like us all, I found Alex oddly relatable (having never been a Jewish Ukrainian immigrant running with a gang).

Great, immersive dive into the New York mob scene.
About the author
My name is Leopold Borstinski and I write historical crime thrillers.
My first series covered twenty years in the lives of a low-level gang family in Baltimore. This second series follows Alex Cohen as he travels across twentieth century America, rubbing shoulders with the most famous names in organized crime in the US, from Lucky Luciano and Mayer Linsky to Mickey Cohen and Bugsy Siegel.
I hope you enjoy listening to the first book in the Alex Cohen series.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get this on Amazon?
Short answer: no. This audiobook is sold direct by the author, Leo, but once bought, you can side load it into your favorite audiobook player.
Why does it cost so much less than most audiobooks?
I don’t have to pay for the thousands of people who work at the large audiobook platforms, so my cost base is much lower: there’s only me. Also, I charge a fair rate for a high-quality product. If you like one of my stories, I hope you’ll come back for more.
Who is Leopold Borstinski anyway?
I am the author of The Bowery Slugger and have been writing historical crime fiction since 2015. So I have been around for a while, and intend to continue writing until they prise the keyboard out of my cold dead fingers.
How safe is buying an audiobook on your website?
Perfectly safe. I have all the usual techy safety features in place for the actual purchase, and I use a support service called BookFunnel that has tons of experience helping people if they have any trouble downloading the book or storing it in their preferred player.
