A gritty thriller in the vein of Dennis Lehane's Mystic River about a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist who returns to the crime-ridden Boston neighbourhood where he grew up, and is forced to confront his past. Grittily realistic, razor-sharp, and darkly compelling, BRIGHTON is about old scars that go unforgotten, the meaning of family, the price of friendship, and survival in a world where one foot wrong can cost you everything.
