In SAVAGES, Don Winslow introduced Ben and Chon, twenty-something best friends who risk everything to save the girl they both love, O. Now, in his high- octane prequel, Winslow reaches back in time to tell a story of family in all its forms. A series of breakneck twists and turns puts two generations on a collision course, culminating in a showdown that will ultimately force Ben, Chon and O to choose between their real families and their love for each other. Published to coincide with the film release of SAVAGES, THE KINGS OF COOL is another stunning literary thriller.
