A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

John Tibbets is not just another homeless man living in a New York City shelter. He also suffers from advanced amnesia and has no idea how he arrived at one of the oldest shelters in America. A recluse, he lives a quiet life of desperate isolation. While wandering the streets of the Bowery one summer night, Tibbets comes upon three men mugging a police officer. Acting on unknown instincts, Tibbets intervenes. Displaying the fighting skills of a Navy Seal, Tibbets saves the life of the police officer, suffering a bullet wound in the process. While recovering at the hospital, Tibbets becomes the toast of the town and a media darling. Uncomfortable with the sudden attention, Tibbets discreetly leaves the hospital late one night to return to the seclusion of the shelter where he is most comfortable. Tibbets’s fame is as short lived as his solitude, however, when a group of mysterious men arrives at the shelter intent on killing him. Forced to run for his life, Tibbets has no idea who the men are or why they want him dead. With no memory to guide him, Tibbets takes to the streets to escape his assailants. Living off his wits, Tibbets must fight not only the men pursuing him, but to regain his memory and unlock the deadly secrets tucked away inside his mind. Set against the backdrop of the gritty New York City streets, Walking Homeless is a fast-paced mystery/thriller that races to a startling climax that will leave readers breathless.
