The Butcher’s Boy by Thomas Perry is a gripping thriller and the first book in the Butcher’s Boy series. This debut novel introduced readers to Perry’s masterful storytelling and earned praise for its “infernal ingenuity” from The New York Times Book Review. The story follows a highly skilled assassin known only as the Butcher’s Boy, who has been trained in the deadly art of murder from an early age. When he assassinates a senior senator in Colorado and travels to Las Vegas to collect his payment, he quickly realises he has become expendable to the powerful forces behind his contract.
As law enforcement closes in, the novel also follows Elizabeth Waring, a determined analyst in the Justice Department, who slowly uncovers the chilling truth behind the crime and the assassin’s identity. Filled with tense action, clever plotting, and psychological depth, The Butcher’s Boy is a standout thriller for fans of crime fiction and suspenseful cat-and-mouse narratives.
A must-read for those who enjoy fast-paced thrillers featuring complex characters and relentless tension.
