A Walk Among the Tombstones

A brilliant, fast-paced thriller. Adapted for major Hollywood release, starring Liam Neeson, Dan Stevens and Ruth Wilson. Big-time dope dealer Kenan Khoury is a wealthy man. One fine spring morning his wife Francine is kidnapped and a ransom is demanded. Kenan pays and his wife is duly returned to him-in - small pieces in the boot of an abandoned car. PI Matt Scudder is left to speculate on the motives of a very unusual kidnapper. And soon he is on the trail of a pair of ruthlessly sadistic psychopaths whose cruel games have only just begun... Soon to be a major Hollywood movie, starring Liam Neeson, Dan Stevens and Ruth Wilson.

This is not the genre that I usually read, but I wanted to read it before I saw the movie. I actually liked it a lot. As I was reading the book, I could picture Liam Neeson as Matthew Scudder. This book is not for the faint of heart, it had some intense parts that were kind of gory. I would recommend this book to anyone that likes suspense. I stick mostly with urban fantasy, but I'm glad I gave this book a chance.
