Unread. A Low Town novel. “Low Town is an ugly place and its champion is an ugly man. A former war hero and intelligence agent, now a crime lord addicted to cheap violence and expensive narcotics, the Warden spends his days hustling for customers and protecting his turf, until the chance discovery of a murdered child sets him on a collision course with the life he had left behind. As bodies bloat in the canal and winter buries the city, he plays a desperate game of deception, pitting the underworld powers against his former colleagues in the secret police, hoping to find the source of the evil before it consumes him, and perhaps the city itself. Virtue is rarely repaid in kind . . . and Low Town is no place for the righteous.” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
