Praise for Get Carter "Sums up the hard-boiled ethos as well as anything I've ever read... As far as classic hard-boiled fiction, Get Carter is sui generis , the place where British noir begins." --David L. Ulin, The Los Angeles Times "Among crime-novel aficionados, it's generally accepted that Ted Lewis established the noir school of writing in Britain, and one novel in particular got it going: Get Carter ." -- Shelf Awareness " Get Carter is one of the most influential works of crime fiction in existence. In the world of U.K. hardboiled literature it's had the kind of impact that books by Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler had on the genre in the U.S." --Criminal Element "It arrived in the post, out of the blue, along with an offer to write and direct it as my first cinema film. Its literary style was as enigmatic as the manner of its arrival. Whilst set in England and written by an Englishman it was (aside from the rain) atypically English. More importantly it ripped off the rose-tinted glasses through which most people saw our mutual homeland. I suspect Ted never shared that Panglossian take on England." --Mike Hodges, director of Get Carter , from the Foreword to this edition "Aristotle, when he defined tragedy, mandated that a tragic hero must fall from a great height, but Aristotle never imagined the kind of roadside motels James M. Cain could conjure up or saw the smokestacks rise in the Northern English industrial hell of Ted Lewis's Get Carter ." --Dennis Lehane, author of Live by Night "Lewis was one of the first British writers in the sixties to take Chandler literally--"The crime story tips violence out of its vase on the shelf and pours it back into the street where it belongs"--and [ Get Carter ] is a book that I and plenty of other people at the time considered to be a classic on these grounds." --Derek Raymond, author of the Factory Novels " Get Carter remains among the great crime novels, a lean, muscular portrait of a man stumbling along the hard edge -- toward redemption. Ted Lewis cuts to the bone." --James Sallis, author of Drive "The finest British crime novel I've ever read." --David Peace, author of Red or Dead "Ted Lewis is one of the most influential crime novelists Britain has ever produced, and his shadow falls on all noir fiction, whether on page or screen, created on these isles since his passing. I wouldn't be the writer I am without Ted Lewis. It's time the world rediscovered him." --Stuart Neville, author of The Ghosts of Belfast "Lewis is major." --Max Alan Collins, author of Road to Perdition "The finest British crime novel ever written." --John Williams, author of The Cardiff Trilogy "Despite a taste for hard-boiled on wry, Lewis has the soul of a serious novelist, capturing the brothers' troubled relationship, the grimness of the surroundings, and, ultimately, the futility of being top dog." -- Booklist , STARRED Review "[An] impressive novel... Evocative prose sets this above similarly themed crime stories... Ian Rankin fans who have not yet read Lewis will be pleased." --Publishers Weekly "Too good to read slowly... Few crime writers could inject menace and desperation into small talk the way Lewis did." --Detectives Beyond Borders, Praise for Get Carter "Sums up the hard-boiled ethos as well as anything I've ever read...

Synopsis
Famously adapted into the iconic film starring Michael Caine, Get Carter-- originally published as Jack's Return Home-- ranks among the most canonical of crime novels. With a special Foreword by Mike Hodges, director of Get Carter It's a rainy night in the mill town of Scunthorpe when a London fixer named Jack Carter steps off a northbound train. He's left the neon lights and mod lifestyle of Soho behind to come north to his hometown for a funeral--his brother Frank's. Frank was very drunk when he drove his car off a cliff and that doesn't sit well with Jack. Mild-mannered Frank never touched the stuff. Jack and Frank didn't exactly like one another. They hadn't spoken in years and Jack is far from the sentimental type. So it takes more than a few people by surprise when Jack starts plying his trade in order to get to the bottom of his brother's death. Then again, Frank's last name was Carter, and that's Jack's name too. Sometimes that's enough. Set in the late 1960s amidst the smokestacks and hardcases of the industrial north of England, Get Carter redefined British crime fiction and cinema alike. Along with the other two novels in the Jack Carter Trilogy, it is one of the most important crime novels of all time.
