Dennis Lehane grew up in the Dorchester section of Boston and currently splits his time between Los Angeles and Boston. He’s published ten novels, three of which (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone, and Shutter Island) have been made into award-winning films. Dennis will be signing and discussing his latest title that continues the historical saga that started with The Given Day followed by Live By Night. In his latest, World Gone By, it’s been ten years since former crime boss Joe Coughlin’s wife was killed and his empire destroyed. Now he travels between Florida and Cuba as consigliore to the Bartolo crime family, moving effortlessly between Tampa’s elite, the mob, and the Cuban underworld. It’s only a matter of time before the sins of his past catch up to him. Please note that this is a numbered event. Numbers for the signing line are free with the purchase of World Gone By from Mysterious Galaxy, which will be available March 10.

Dennis Lehane opina sobre Vivir de noche (SERIE NEGRA) (Spanish Edition).

Live by Night begins in 1926, a time when the black market’s maze of underground distilleries and speakeasies is home to gangsters and corrupt cops. A tale of swindling and strong-arming in Boston, Florida, and Cuba that pits one gangster against another in a fight for respect, superiority, and firm control of the Atlantic Coast’s rum business. Live by Night gives readers the page-turning opportunity to experience Dennis Lehane’s masterful suspense and his new historical landscape. (Sydney2462)… (más)

Dennis Lehane is the author of nine novels—including the New York Times bestsellers Gone, Baby, Gone; Mystic River; Shutter Island; and The Given Day—as well as Coronado, a collection of short stories and a play. He and his wife, Angie, divide their time between Boston and the Gulf Coast of Florida.

Before becoming a full-time writer, Mr. Lehane worked as a counselor with mentally handicapped children, waited tables, parked cars, drove limos, worked in bookstores, and loaded tractor-trailers. His one regret is that no one ever gave him a chance to tend bar.
