Summary
"Dmytryk was once a respectable man. College educated, happily married, a stable job at a car factory in Detroit. But with the recession, Dmytryk and his wife, Cora, find themselves without jobs. Afraid of losing her home and her marriage, Cora compromises her faith and makes some choices that she isn't proud of. When a ruthless crime boss named Eddie Coyle gives them an opportunity to buy back their old lives, Cora urges Dmytryk to man up. Torn between desperation and his integrity, Dmytryk gives in, but no sooner does he enter a life of crime than Cora abandons him, taking with her his dreams."--P. [4] of cover
