- The setting is early Queens, New York, in the middle of summer, 1947. In the midst of the cars, and jazz, and alcohol, is a known assassin, gang member, and "journalist"; Tony Alan Swalls, known as 'Swallbird' by his customers and group. He doesn't know that, surprisingly, his role wasn't the 'cat', in cat and mouse . . . ||Hiya! I'm Marshall, the author, as you know! This is my first story on wattpad, and when I made Swallbird, I wasn't even considering making this. But, hey, here I am. Hope you enjoy this story!||
