Live By Night Wins Edgar Award

Dennis Lehane's Live By Night has been awarded the 2013 Edgar Award for best novel beating out Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl in what has been deemed a literary upset.  From Shutter Island to Mystic River , Lehane’s suspenseful writing has established him as far more than a Boston crime writer. His books are almost guaranteed movies and, sure enough, Ben Affleck is set to produce Live by Night on screen. Live by Night is the second in a trilogy about a Boston family of Irish lawmen and it tells the tale of Joe Coughlin’s rise from thief to gangster in the Prohibition Era.  Check out a copy at your Community Library today!
