Dennis Lehane

Bestselling author Dennis Lehane (Gone, Baby, Gone; Mystic River) invests a gripping thriller with a wealth of historical detail in his epic new novel, The Given Day. Set in Boston, the book revolves around the police strike of 1919 and its ramifications for two very different main characters. Capturing the maelstrom of a city—and a nation—at the crossroads, the book is a fascinating portrayal of race, politics, family, and greed.
