Dark Angel

Jack Buturov is a bouncer in a Sydney casino. He?s in hiding from life, his ex-wife and his chronically ill son. Damien was a rent boy hustler, who got in over his head in some bad political business. Despite himself, Jack loved Damian, and when someone guns the boy down, he has to investigate. Along the way he runs into the Vietnamese mafia, corrupt cops, psychotic bikers and, best and worst of all, Damian?s sister Angie - a woman as burnt out as Jack Buturow. An outstanding debut, Dark Angel is an Australian thriller that crackles with the same white lightning as a James Ellroy or a James Crumley.
