**"A meticulously crafted portrait of our violent national past."--_Washington Post Book World_**

**Now  
available with a contemporary look, _New York Times_ bestselling author  
Dennis Lehane's epic, unflinching tale of Prohibition, the Roaring Twenties,  
and one man's rise from Boston petty thief to the Gulf Coast's most successful  
rum runner.**

Joe Coughlin, the youngest son of a prominent  
Boston police captain, has long since turned his back on his strict and proper  
upbringing, and enjoys the spoils, thrills, and notoriety of being an outlaw.  
But life on the dark side carries a heavy price, and one fate seems most likely  
for men like Joe: an early death. Until that day, he and his friends are  
determined to live life to the hilt.

Joe  
embarks on a dizzying journey up the ladder of organized crime that takes him  
from the flash of Jazz Age Boston to the sensual shimmer of Tampa's Latin  
Quarter to the sizzling streets of Cuba. _Live  
by Night_ is a riveting epic  
layered with a diverse cast of loyal friends and callous enemies, tough  
rumrunners and sultry femmes fatales, Bible-quoting evangelists and cruel  
Klansmen, all battling for survival and their piece of the American dream. At  
once a sweeping love story and a compelling saga of revenge, it is a  
spellbinding tour de force that brings fully to life a bygone era when sin was  
cause for celebration and vice was a national virtue.
