Providence, RI, 1986.
Twenty-nine-year-old Danny Ryan is a hard-working longshoreman, loving husband, loyal friend, and occasional "muscle" for the Irish crime syndicate that oversees much of the city. He yearns for something more and dreams of starting over fresh, someplace far away.
But when a modern-day Helen of Troy triggers a war between rival mob factions, Danny is embroiled in a conflict he can't escape. Now it is up to him to step into the breach to protect his family, the friends who are closer to him than brothers, and the only home he's ever known.
Exploring classic themes of loyalty, betrayal, honour, and corruption on both sides of the law, City on Fire is a contemporary Iliad from Don Winslow, "one of America's greatest storytellers" (Stephen King).
In this riveting mystery, Winslow weaves a tale of adventure and political intrigue, placing City on Fire at the top of fiction thrillers. The narrative is a detective's dream, filled with unexpected twists and turns that keep the reader on the edge of their seat.
For fans of S.A. Cosby (All The Sinners Bleed), Jordan Harper (Love and Other Wounds), Michael Connelly (The Dark Hours), Mick Herron (The Secret Hours), and Jo Nesbo (Knife).
