The fast-paced, mesmerizing action thriller has been named the best book in the popular literary genre ever written in Canada. Organized crime, whose weapons are always the same - bribery, threats, murder, is opposed by people with strong convictions and strong character. The truth is told about the dark side of life in Montreal, where in recent years there have been more bombings than Belfast and more than 150 people have been killed in gang wars over turf. There are more gangs from Eastern Europe operating here than in New York and Miami combined. The novel has been published in 24 countries, and a film based on it will soon be released worldwide.
