  The Blade Itself  
 
Marcus Sakey
Danny Carter, reformed thief, comes face to face with his dark past when Evan – his childhood friend from the streets of Chicago’s treacherous South Side and volatile former partner – is paroled from a prison sentence and shows up expecting payback after taking the fall for his former partner. When Danny turns him down, Evan raises the stakes dangerously high.
The Blade Itself is a novel where social classes and conditions, action and introspection blend in the form of a thriller, giving way to suspense as well as sociological analysis. It is an “ethical” noir, whose questions are existential and whose perspective on human nature lucid. Ben Affleck bought the rights to make a film produced by Miramax.
