Bill and Fiona, the lovable anti-heroes of the “Love & Bullets” trilogy, find themselves in the toughest of tough badly wounded, hunted by assorted cops and goons, and desperately in need of a drink (or five).
After a round-the-world tour of spectacular criminality, Bill and Fiona find themselves back in New York.

Can they survive?
