A bold, razor-sharp political thriller set in post-Harvey Milk San Francisco, From Violent Men is a searing portrait of justice, identity, and vengeance in the early 1980s LGBTQ+ community.
When a small group of gay men secretly plot to assassinate a Dan White-like figure-now protected in prison-the lines between justice and revenge blur. Rick Jessup, a young gay journalist, finds himself in the crosshairs of a deadly conspiracy as he's drawn into a web of activism, cover-ups, and dangerous passion.
Originally published in 1983 and now reissued in this 41st Anniversary Edition, Daniel Curzon's daring novel explores the aftermath of political betrayal, the early gay rights movement, and the moral complexity of fighting back. Curzon, known for his pioneering voice in LGBTQ+ literature, delivers a gripping narrative infused with satire, emotion, and explosive twists.
