In the 1970s, disco dominated American pop music. Originating in nightclubs that featured record players instead of live bands, disco was a major stylistic departure from rock, and its rise to the top of the music charts signaled a cultural shift that some found threatening. Disco's roots lay in a gay urban subculture, and the artists who created it were largely African American and Latino. In the gay dance clubs where it flourished, disco was much more than music it was an expression of gay pride and a lifestyle statement. To many outside this community, disco was anathema. Chicago DJ Steve Dahl, who lost his job when the rock radio station he worked for changed to an all-disco format, gave voice to disco-haters by holding "Death To Disco" rallies at local nightclubs. On July 12, 1979, the Chicago White Sox featured Dahl at a "Disco Demolition" event that turned violent as 5,000 people stormed the ballfield, setting fires and ripping up turf; Chicago police in riot gear were needed to restore the peace. It was the first of many anti-disco events around the country that year. WAR ON DISCO explores the cultural movement that gave rise to disco music, and the backlash that tried to destroy it.

En un breve instante, una caída borró su memoria. Ahora, de lo único que estaba seguro era de que alguien lo quería muerto… y que era mejor que averiguara por qué. Pero parecía que en cada sitio al que llegaba había aún más interrogantes… o más personas demasiado dispuestas a ocultar la verdad detrás de una cortina de humo compuesta de mentiras. Tenía únicamente el nombre que le habían dicho que era el suyo, su misteriosa destreza con la pistola y una relación con el equivalente a medio millón de dólares en oro escondido como evidencia de su vida pasada. ¿Era suyo el tesoro? ¿Era él un ladrón? ¿Un asesino? No tenía las respuestas, pero debía encontrarlas pronto. Porque lo que aún no sabía de sí mismo, lo sabían otros… y, a menos que develara el secreto de su pasado, no tendría mucho futuro.

A Orrin lo nombraron alguacil, mientras que Tye lograba el respeto y el miedo sin insignia. Finalmente, cuando reaparece un tema pendiente del pasado, un hermano se ve obligado a revertir a sus viejas maneras—si es que los sueños del otro se hicieran realidad.
