A New York bar bouncer with dreams of being more, Tommy Russo jumps at the chance to join a horse-owning syndicate. But to do so he'll have to pony up $10,000 — and that's money he hasn't got. So what's an ambitious young man to do?
Anything he has to…
In the tradition of The Killer Inside Me and The Talented Mr. Ripley, Jason Starr has created a memorable protagonist who will go to any extent to achieve his 'deserved' portion of the American dream. A chilling narrative of lies, mind games, and the forces that guide pure evil, Fake ID is destined to become a classic.
'A powerful novel of the American Dream turning into the American Nightmare that marks Starr out as a writer to follow' — Time Out 'Starr expertly combines elements of hard-boiled crime novels with a dark view of human nature to create a one-of-a-kind, mesmerizing read' — Publishers Weekly
