    Successful New York accountant Paul Benjamin is enjoying a three-martini lunch when a gang of drug addicts breaks into his home. After finding very little in the way of money, they brutally attack Paul's family, killing his wife and leaving his daughter comatose. Grief-stricken and aware that the police are unable to bring the criminals to justice, he decides to take matters into his own hands. Armed with a revolver and a self-destructive compulsion, he sets out to rid the city of its villains and exact revenge on those who destroyed his life. First published in 1972 and later adapted into five films starring the late Charles Bronson, Death Wish is an unflinching, powerful thriller about just how far a man can be pushed before he loses control.

    "You try to walk in this town, you hear footsteps behind you—it's like the sound of grenades. A walk in Chicago after dark is a combat mission." This is the story of Paul Benjamin, a man obsessed with revenge and private justice. Revenge against the criminals—the muggers, the murderers, and the rapists who prey on the innocent and the helpless. Death Sentence is the continuing saga of the hero of Death Wish, an ordinary man driven to vigilantism by the brutal rape and murder of his wife and daughter. When Paul moves to Chicago to get away from his past, he knows he is going to continue his violent and private war. He also knows this time he might get caught. What he does not expect is to fall in love with a beautiful woman who is more dangerous to him than the men he stalks. "Edge-of-the-chair reading all the way....Wholly fascinating." —The Booklist "Garfield is a first-rate storyteller." —Publishers Weekly
