A hard-boiled crime novel set in the Boston Mafia, centered on revenge and moral dilemmas.
Andrew Coburn’s The Babysitter was a bestseller; his previous book, Off Duty, was hailed by the New York Times Book Review as 'a flawlessly plotted, stylishly written account. The rewards are many and exceptional.' Now, in Sweetheart, a novel about the Boston Mafia, Andrew Coburn has surpassed himself. Revenge, the defining motif of this suspenseful tale of crime, is a joyous emotion in the Mafia.
