Live by Night

von Dennis Lehane

Boston, 1926. The '20s are roaring. Liquor is flowing, bullets are flying, and one man sets out to make his mark on the world.

Hailed by Janet Maslin in the New York Times as 'sentence-by-sentence pleasure' Dennis Lehane's Live by Night is an epic, unflinching tale of Prohibition and one man's rise from petty thief on the streets of Boston to the greatest rum runner on the Gulf Coast. Meticulously researched and artfully told, Lehane solidifies his reputation 'among the most interesting and accomplished American novelists of any genre or category (Washington Post).
