Kompletný popis

To the people of Los Angeles, Edgardo Duque is an everyman, an Asian-American entrepreneur running a busy garage, a downtown lounge, and his estranged family. To those who know him well, Edgardo is also a genius with flawless hyperthymesiac memory who copes with alcoholism, OCD, and a gambling addiction.

Edgardo's public life covers his secret work as a "fixer" for organized crime.

Sought for his discretion and ability to solve any problem, he became known as "The Duke," a legend specializing in laundering money, fencing stolen goods, running guns, and brokering deals.

For years, Edgardo used his towering intellect to keep a delicate balance between his two lives, distancing his family and friends from the dangerous gangs he does business with and the city's special task force not far behind. However, upon his infamous brother's release from prison, he finds his two worlds spilling into each other, and must go to extremes to protect those he loves.

The Duke of Temple Street is character study in family, culture, personal crisis, and crime.
