Back(stabbed) In Brooklyn
by Lenox Parker
Price: Free! 60410 words.
Published on August 4, 2010. Fiction.
This Hollywood star is washed up after a series of sordid, drunken mistakes, and returns to his Brooklyn roots after decades of success. What he finds is not the nostalgia he expected, but a group of hardened guys with grudges to match. The gang all finally meet up at a dive in Chinatown, but instead of a warm reunion the deep resentments of the past turn into exploitation and deceit.

Biography
I was a very successful writer until I was persecuted and exiled.
Ok not really.
I was a marginal independent writer–not unlike where I am now–and my day job HR department got on my case so I went underground with this ferkakte alias. So I deleted my twitter account, brought my blog to a screeching halt, and re-started.
Which is fine.
I write short stories and flash fiction and they are awesome. But I love writing books. Back(stabbed) In Brooklyn is my first novel, told in multiple perspectives. I can't wait to see it made into a film. With Harvey Keitel, please...
