About this audiobook
The King’s Men
Boston, December 1931. Loyalty has worth—most men don’t.
Fifteen years at sea haven’t washed South Boston out of Patrick Flynn. When the former Navy Chief comes home on the bitter end of a losing streak, the only open door belongs to Donal Murphy—the childhood mentor who once helped him skip town ahead of a robbery charge, and now runs with Kieran Maguire, a small-time mobster with ambitions.
Before long, Flynn is back in the rackets, knee-deep in blood, whiskey, and betrayal. Every handshake hides a blade, and every favor has a cost.
A hard-boiled crime novel steeped in loyalty, betrayal, and Boston’s dark alleys — in the tradition of Chandler, Ellroy, and Lehane — The King’s Menis the first book in a gritty new trilogy about love, honor, and survival in Prohibition era Boston.
