'Smart, twisty, and sharply written, The Doorman is hard to put down and harder to forget. A delight.' KARIN SLAUGHTER, Sunday Times bestselling author

The new electrifying thriller from the New York Times bestseller and master of the shock ending.

Chicky Diaz is everyone's favourite doorman at the Bohemia, New York City's world-famous home of celebrities, financiers, and the cultural elite.

In the basement staff room, the life-and-death stakes of daily life are hardly news to the primarily Black and Latino hospitality. So, when the NYPD fatally shoots an unarmed Black man and the streets swell with both protestors and counter protestors, the staff's concerns are less about the building or its residents and more about their survival - and what justice will look like.

As tensions escalate, Chicky mans the line between the turbulence outside and the oblivious residents living within. But Chicky has his own problems, the kind that have led him to carry a gun on tonight's shift for the first time in thirty years.

Because tonight, someone is going to die.

A piercing portrait of the way we live now that is also a finely-honed thriller of ticking-clock suspense, The Doorman is about class and privilege in a city poised to boil over, and the ever-starker divisions testing everything New York City likes to believe about itself.
