London Boulevard

Suspense by Ken Bruen

Blurb

When Mitchell is released from prison after serving three years for a vicious attack he doesn’t even remember, Billy Norton is there to pick him up. But Norton works for Tommy Logan, a ruthless loan shark lowlife with plans Mitchell wants nothing to do with. Attempting to stay out of Logan’s way, he finds work at the Holland Park mansion of faded movie actress, Lillian Palmer, where he has to deal with her mysterious butler, Jordan. It isn’t long before Mitchell’s violent past catches up with him and people start getting hurt. When his disturbed sister Briony is threatened, Mitchell is forced to act. Academy Award-winning screenwriter William Monahan (The Departed) has teamed with Quentin Curtis to acquire rights to London Boulevard. Monahan plans to co-produce, write, and make his directorial debut with the movie. This is a masterful work of double dealing and suspense from one of the great crime writers of our time.

Kaum zehn Minuten aus dem Knast, bricht Mitchell auch schon einem Punk den Arm. Als Geldeintreiber ist man nicht gerade zimperlich. Doch Mitchell will sein Leben ändern: legale Geldquelle, nette Frau, Kinder vielleicht. Als ihm die Diva Lillian Palmer einen Job auf ihrem Anwesen in Notting Hill anbietet, sieht er seine Chance gekommen - und Lillian könnte glatt die richtige Frau sein. Alles prima, wären da nicht Lillians zwielichtiger Butler Jordan und Tommy Logan, ein Geldhai, der seine eigenen Pläne für Mitchell hat ...
