Malone isn’t just an epically brutal detective with. Now Malone is caught in a trap and being squeezed by the Feds, and he must walk the thin line between betraying his brothers and partners, the Job, his family, and the woman he loves, trying to survive, body and soul, while the city teeters on the brink of a racial conflagration that could destroy them all. For all the lip service Winslow pays to the boys in blue, make no mistake The Force paints the police in a very unflattering light. A young widower named Danny Ryan, his elderly father and his 18month-old son, Ian, are setting off from Providence, R.I., to the edge of the Pacific in a car packed with diapers, presumably both infant and adult-sized. Praise for The Force by Don Winslow: ‘Hard-hitting one of the great works of fiction about the police superbly chronicled’ : The Times ‘Stephen King, James Ellroy and Lee Child see Don Winslow as one of their number, and he confirms his right to belong in this elite with The Force a panoramic picture of a criminal justice system permeated by corruption, cronyism and lies. What only a few know is that Denny Malone is dirty: he and his partners have stolen millions of dollars in drugs and cash in the wake of the biggest heroin bust in the city’s history. The opening chapter of Don Winslow’s City of Dreams could be the setup for a classic Preston Sturges on-the-road movie. He’s done whatever it takes to serve and protect in a city built by ambition and corruption, where no one is clean-including Malone himself. Every day and every night for the eighteen years he’s spent on the Job, Malone has served on the front lines, witnessing the hurt, the dead, the victims, the perps. He is “the King of Manhattan North,” a, highly decorated NYPD detective sergeant and the real leader of “Da Force.” Malone and his crew are the smartest, the toughest, the quickest, the bravest, and the baddest, an elite special unit given unrestricted authority to wage war on gangs, drugs and guns. All Denny Malone wants is to be a good cop.
