The Doorman

Chicky Diaz stands on his little patch of the earth, the clean quiet sidewalk in front of the Bohemia Apartments, thinking: there sure are a lot of great places to kill someone in this city.

Chicky is a doorman at New York City's world-famous apartment block, housing celebrities, financiers and the cultural elite.

Gathered in its basement, the almost entirely Black and Hispanic staff is reeling. Just a few miles away, a Black man has been killed by the police, leading to a long night of violence across the city.

But these rising tensions aren't what most concern Chicky. There's more going on within the rooms of the Bohemia than anyone's aware of. In fact, ahead of tonight's shift, he bought a gun even before he knew of the rising pandemonium.

Tonight, enemies will clash, loyalties will be tested, secrets will be revealed - and lives will be lost.

A thriller about a city set to boil over that explores themes of class, privilege, sex, and murder from the New York Times bestselling author of Two Nights in Lisbon and The Expats.
