Over dit e-boek
This first novel, written by a veteran New York journalist, begins at The Barbara Bush Home for the Criminally Insane, a Federal institution plunked down like a lump of bacon fat on the great sizzling griddle that is west Texas, north of Abilene. There we meet Paul Bittner, a magazine writer turned murderer who is serving a life sentence. In the pages that follow, our narrator relates how he came to be a killer and find himself behind bars. Its a tale set in Manhattan, in the bars and restaurants and private clubsas well as in the offices and cubicles and conference rooms of major national magazines. Its a story of backstabbing and betrayal, of revenge and retribution, of dysfunctional bosses and disillusioned workers, of mind-numbing bureaucracy and the quiet savagery of the workplaceall of it fueled by drugs and alcohol and random sexual encounters. In the end, its a story of how one man is consumed by fate and his own weakness--and how he then finds a strange brand of redemption.
