The late 1960s. It's Christmastime and Jack Carter is the top  man in a crime syndicate headed by two brothers, Gerald and Les  Fletcher. He’s also a worried man. The fact that he’s sleeping with  Gerald’s wife, Audrey, and that they plan on someday running away  together with a lot of the brothers’ money, doesn’t have Jack concerned.  Instead it’s an informant—one of his own men—that has him losing sleep.  The grass has enough knowledge about the firm to not only bring down  Gerald and Les but Jack as well. Jack doesn’t like his name in the mouth  of that sort. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eJack Carter’s Law\u003c\/i\u003e Ted Lewis  returned to the character that launched his career and once again  delivered a hardboiled masterpiece. Jack Carter is the ideal tour guide  to a bygone London underworld. In his quest to dismantle the opposition,  he peels back the veneer of English society and offers a hard look at a  gritty world of pool halls, strip clubs and the red lights of Soho  nightlife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003eBorn in Manchester, England, Ted Lewis (1940-1982) spent most of his  youth in Barton-upon-Humber in the north of England. After graduating  from Hull Art School, Lewis moved to London and first worked in  advertising before becoming an animation specialist, working on the  Beatles’ \u003ci\u003eYellow Submarine\u003c\/i\u003e. His novels are the product of his  lifelong fascination with the criminal lifestyle of London’s Soho  district and the down-and-out lifestyle of the English factory town.  Lewis' novels pioneered the British noir school. He is the author of nine  novels, the second of which was famously adapted in 1971 as the now  iconic \u003ci\u003eGet Carter\u003c\/i\u003e, which stars Michael Caine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46556141977761,"sku":"BBSNIJ9781616955052","price":18.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9781616955052.jpg?v=1781806455","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/jack-carters-law-paperback-by-ted-lewis","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
