B.D. Lawrence has always loved reading fiction. Ironically, though, his worst subject in high school was English. One night, sitting in a master's level computer programming class, daydreaming about vigilantes, he decided to give writing a try. Out of that came his first novel, which went nowhere. That was many years ago. During his writing journey he’s dabbled in several genres, including mystery, suspense, science fiction, fantasy, and literary fiction. He currently is focusing on crime stories of justice, vengeance, and redemption. He hopes his Lefty Bruder private detective series will not only entertain lovers of P.I. fiction but will also help fight the scourge of human trafficking, as B.D. Lawrence is going to donate half of all his profits from that series to organizations helping to fight human trafficking.
Firstly, my thanks to the publisher(s), the author, and GoodReads for the giveaway!
This was a surprisingly good read. Not often I get to cheer for the bad guy! Many thanks for all the jazz referrals as well! Would certainly read more from BD Lawrence!
Hardgrave is a poetry-writing Mob enforcer, disgusted with his boss Vincenti's attitude towards the victim of the latest hit he'd ordered. When Vincenti disrespects him further, Hardgrave redresses the balance in the only way he knows how, thus putting a target on his own back. Where's his friend Artie? Who reawakens Hardgrave's sensitive side?
A crime-thriller with a twist, that reminded me of Tom Cruise's hitman in Collateral, John Travolta in Pulp Fiction or Clint Eastwood's character in Unforgiven. B.D. Lawrence expertly investigates the power of love, and shows how an unexpected event can turn a person's life around completely. Killer Redemption's title is very apt, and it contains a host of fascinating, insightful, all-action scenes, that together with its wonderful, well-developed and realistic characters and believable, noir storyline, guarantee satisfaction on many levels.
