Bad Boy (Mulholland Classic)

by Jim Thompson

From the beginning, Jim Thompson knew he was going to catch hell no matter what he did. And during a childhood spent at the mercy of a father whose schemes put him on the wrong side of the law as often as the right, and a grandfather who knew the bad parts of town like the back of his hand, young Jim learned sin better than any writer had before.From his rabble-rousing adolescence in the American Midwest, to wasted teenage years in the seedy underbelly of the hotel industry, to Thompson's chilling encounter with the real-life inspiration of THE KILLER INSIDE ME, BAD BOY offers a fascinating glimpse at the formative years of the man who would become one of the most famous authors of modern American Noir, in the autobiography-as-novel that follows the birth of the legend himself in the signature style Thompson made famous.

Young Brawly Brown has traded in his family for The Clan of the First Men, a group rejecting white leadership and laws.

His first day on the case, Easy comes face-to-face with a corpse, and before he knows it he is a murder suspect and in the middle of a police raid.

Bad Boys (Bad Boys #Volumen)

by Luis Ávila

Tracy conoce los riesgos de involucrarse con Theo. ¿Pero qué tan malo puede ser atreverse a mostrar su lado salvaje? Para Tracy, los días en el instituto son parte de una rutina sin sobresaltos. Las advertencias de su madre para protegerla de los peligros que acechan dieron buenos resultados: Tracy es aplicada, responsable y prudente. Hasta esa noche en la que llega por primera vez a una fiesta Craxxxy y conoce a Theo, uno de los líderes del temible grupo Bad Boys. La atracción es instantánea. Y ese fuego inicial pronto se convierte en una hoguera que amenaza con destruir todo a su paso. Reseñas:«Bad Boys es una novela que sin duda pondría a Lulú a abanicarse la cara. Está llena de chicos bellos y sensuales que son perfectos para las amantes de los libros con toques picantes».Eva Muñoz, autora de la saga Pecados placenteros «Bad Boys es un dark romance poco convencional. Parar de leerlo fue prácticamente imposible porque a cada página que leía, la necesidad de saber que sucedería después se volvió desesperante. Pocas historias me han hecho tener pequeños ataques de ira y frustración seguidos de risas tontas y suspiros indebidos por un protagonista malo e incorrecto. La historia me trasladó a mi juventud, a esa época en la que era una adolescente rebelde encaprichada con un chico que a todas luces no conviene, pero que se te mete debajo de la piel y no puedes dejar de perseguirlo. Las intrigas y los misterios que rodean a este grupo de chicos problemáticos sazonan el romance tóxico de los protagonistas. Es una historia cruda, llena de amistades peligrosas, amores desastrosos y decisiones erradas, como la vida misma. Un sube y baja de sentimientos completamente adictivo».Yoshíe M.C.
