Hello everyone!
I recently rewatched the John Wick series and have been wondering if there are any books that have a similar setup and worldbuilding. Particularly, I am interested in a story where the protagonist tries to escape the criminal world they had been a part of before (maybe because of love, or because they found another purpose in life), but are ultimately being pulled back into it. Could be because of revenge, or because they are being chased down by ‘the’ organization and they need to fight back, or to protect their loved ones etc. I really liked the dynamic of John Wick versus the whole world that is ruled by the High Table, the ultimate authority.
Plus points if there is a considerable amount of deaths and tragedy too!
I am happy for every recommendation, even if it is not 100% what I am looking for. Basically just looking for crime fiction with a criminal underground as antagonist and lots of guns lol. Thanks everyone!
