New York Times Bestseller
Following the epic, ambitious, instant New York Times bestseller
City on Fire, "The Godfather for our generation" (Adrian McKinty),
comes the dramatic second novel in an epic crime trilogy from Don
Winslow, #1 internationally bestselling author of the Cartel trilogy
(The Power of the Dog, The Cartel and The Border).
Hollywood.
The city where dreams are made.
On the losing side of a bloody East Coast crime war, Danny Ryan is now
on the run. The Mafia, the cops, the FBI all want him dead or in prison.
With his little boy, his elderly father and the tattered remnants of his
loyal crew of soldiers, he makes the classic American migration to
California to start a new life.
A quiet, peaceful existence.
But the Feds track him down and want Danny to do them a favor that could
make him a fortune or kill him.
And when Hollywood starts shooting a film based on his former life,
Danny demands a piece of the action and begins to rebuild his criminal
empire.
Then he falls in love.
With a beautiful movie star who has a dark past of her own.
As their worlds collide in an explosion that could destroy them both,
Danny Ryan has to fight for his life in a city where dreams are born.
Or where they go to die.
From the shores of Rhode Island to the deserts of California where
bodies disappear, from the power corridors of Washington where the real
criminals operate to the fabled movie studios of Hollywood where the
real money is made, City of Dreams is a sweeping saga of family, love,
revenge, survival and the fierce reality behind the dream.
