This is a riveting, muscular thriller set amid the gang violence of early 90s New York. The reader guns unswervingly for McKinty's hero - the green-eyed, quick-witted Michael Forsyth - during his brief career as henchman to a crime boss, his fall from grace and subsequent imprisonment. Michael?s escape from a Mexican jail and tortuous return to New York is an exhilarating, unforgettable sequence that culminates in a clinical and bloody denouement. A masterclass in revenge narrative, Dead I Well May Be delivers explosive action with gallows humour and a poet's touch.
