      About This Book

      "Robert Tanenbaum's very distinguished prosecutorial background allows him to bring the raw reality of big-city true crime to his fictional crime thrillers." —Vincent Bugliosi, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

      A classic, pulse-pounding thriller from the legendary Robert K. Tanenbaum, Act of Revenge plunges the popular author's long-running series protagonists, New York City Chief Assistant District Attorney Butch Karp and family, into the lethal heart of a bloody turf war between the Mafia and ruthless Chinese gangsters. An elite member of America's contemporary crime fiction and thriller royalty—a master whose work stands tall among the novels of John Sanford, Lee Child, Robert Crais, and Brad Meltzer—Tanenbaum entertains magnificently, displaying true storytelling muscle with Act of Revenge.

      "Former New York City homicide chief and trial attorney Tanenbaum has crafted a believably twisted gem of a gangster tale with visceral action and smooth comic relief in a technicolor." —Publishers Weekly

      "Act of Revenge not only thrills but also entertains." —Orlando Sentinel

      "This colorfully written and cleverly plotted novel will be another winner for Tanenbaum." —Booklist

      "A suspenseful thriller." —Bozeman Chronicle
