Description
The Last Green Light by George Foy A unique and vibrant tale that sheds light on the often-overlooked world of the working class during Gatsby's era. Jon Laine, captain of one of the rumrunning boats, finds himself at the centre of a colourful and deadly conflict between organised crime syndicates. In this beautifully textured novel, the author brings to life a diverse cast of characters, from diner cooks to secretaries, deckhands to car mechanics, all caught up in the murderous passions of caste-busting love. The result is a jazz-inspired riffs on F Scott Fitzgerald's classic novel, creating its own unique world in the process. With its rich and immersive storytelling, The Last Green Light offers a fresh perspective on an iconic American novel, one that will appeal to readers looking for a compelling and thought-provoking read.
