Publisher Description: "Tanenbaum is one lawyer who can write with the best of them." "Tanenbaum is one hell of a writer." "He has become a master of this genre, and Act of Revenge may be his most exciting and best effort to date." A classic, pulse-pounding thriller from the legendary Robert K. Tanenbaum, Act of Revenge plunges the popular author's long-running series protagonists, New York City Chief Assistant District Attorney Butch Karp and family, into the lethal heart of a bloody turf war between the Mafia and ruthless Chinese gangsters. An elite member of America's contemporary crime fiction and thriller royalty--a master whose work stands tall among the novels of John Sanford, Lee Child, Robert Crais, and Brad Meltzer--Tanenbaum entertains magnificently, displaying true storytelling muscle with Act of Revenge. |
