Gordon Burns was a former war correspondent who also wrote various novels about his experience in war zones. Burns skill as a writer was so great that Richard Castle once attended a book signing by him, where he met Burns's young daughter, Nina. The incident left Burns deeply traumatised, unable to tap into the passion for his writing that he had once possessed, with his editor keeping him on the payroll due to their old friendship while assigning him the occasional puff piece.

abstract	Gordon Burns was a former war correspondent who also wrote various novels about his experience in war zones. Burns skill as a writer was so great that Richard Castle once attended a book signing by him, where he met Burns's young daughter, Nina. Burns’s life was changed forever when he tried to find out more about the mysterious new heroin dealer known only as ‘Cavallo’, who operated in the shadows killing his opponents. When Burns began to track Cavallo, Cavallo arranged a car accident that left Burns crippled - requiring an artificial hip - and killed his young daughter, Burns being so injured that he couldn’t even crawl over to hold his daughter in his arms as she died. The incident left Burns deeply traumatised, unable to tap into the passion for his writing that he had once possessed, with his editor keeping him on the payroll due to their old friendship while assigning him the occasional puff piece. This changed when Burns was assigned a piece on the ‘pizza wars’ between four pizzerias, resulting in him discovering evidence that Cavallo was using one of the four pizzerias as a front for drug-sales. As well as other, minor secrets, such as that one of the pizzerias’ ‘low-fat’ cheese was nothing of the sort, or a distant relationship between another manager and the Spolano crime family. Cavallo attempted to kill Burns when his investigation took him too close to the truth by leaving him in one of the ovens to burn his body, but the resulting investigation exposed Cavallo’s true identity.
