The Friends of Eddie Coyle by George V Higgins

Eddie Coyle works for Jimmy Scalisi, supplying him with guns for a couple of bank jobs. But a cop named Foley is on to Eddie and he's leaning on him to finger Scalisi, a gang leader with a lot to hide. And then there's Dillon - a full-time bartender and part-time contract killer - pretending to be Eddie's friend. Wheeling, dealing, chasing and stealing - that's Eddie, and he's got lots of friends.

George V. Higgins wrote more than twenty novels, including The Friends of Eddie Coyle, Cogan's Trade, The Rat on Fire, and The Digger's Game, which were all blockbusters. Before graduating from Boston College Law School in 1967, he worked as a reporter for the Providence Journal and the Associated Press. From 1969 to 1973, he worked as an assistant attorney general and subsequently as an assistant United States attorney in Boston. Afterwards, he became a Creative Writing professor at Boston University. In 1999, he passed away.
