Eddie's Boy

A Butcher's Boy Novel, Book 4

De: Thomas Perry

Narrado por: Michael Kramer

Michael Shaeffer is a retired American businessman, living peacefully in England with his aristocratic wife. But her annual summer party brings strangers to their house, and with them, an attempt on Michael's life. He is immediately thrust into action, luring his lethal pursuers to Australia before venturing into the lion's den - the States - to figure out why the mafia is after him again and how to stop them.

Eddie's Boy jumps between Michael's current predicament and the past, between the skillset he now ruthlessly and successfully employs and the training that made him what he is. We glimpse the days before he became the Butcher's Boy, the highly skilled mob hit man who pulled a slaughter job on some double-crossing clients and started a mob war, to his childhood spent apprenticed to Eddie, a seasoned hired assassin. And we watch him pit two prominent mafia families against each other to eliminate his enemies one by one.

He's meticulous in his approach, using his senior contact in the Organized Crime Division of the Justice Department for information, without ever allowing her to get too close to his trail. But will he be able to escape this new wave of young contract killers, or will the years finally catch up to him?

Excellent, as they all are!

Thomas Perry and Michael Kramer are the perfect combination. And this is in my opinion is the perfect series. No matter what other people have said, I believe this book is just as good as the first three! It rounded out the whole story and ended very pleasingly. MICHAEL is my favorite antihero!

Eddie’s Boy is a sublimely good guy and a better villain

A Great author with one of my or perhaps my most favorite characters. I can read and then after a short time read again!

Excellent series ender……

This book really ties together the Butcher Boy series. I love the Narration and the way that the characters are so well developed. I’m sad to see it end

Classic Perry

If you enjoyed The Butcher’s Boy, you will love this. He is in fine form. And what a great backstory. Michael Cramer is the perfect narrator for this book.
