Sergeant William Hughes of the London Metropolitan Police is a hated man, straddling the razor’s edge between the law and criminal rape, violence and blackmail among his preferred methods of dispensing the King’s peace.

Haunted by his victims, Hughes plots a final act of revenge, dreaming of a new life in the Land of the Boston, Massachusetts. Boston Vice Detective Ben Hughes is a bagman for the Southie Mob. When the photograph of a missing child in the newspaper triggers a one-man investigation, Hughes’ compulsion slowly unravels his world; memories defined by unrelenting abuse and his father’s demise two decades earlier.A vintage hard-boiled story for fans of James M. Cain, Jim Thompson and David Goodis, this PUNK NOIR re-issue of Golds’ indie classic is introduced with a new foreword by the author of The Treatment, Sarah Moorhead.PRAISE FOR I'LL PRAY WHEN I'M DYING“Golds writes fearlessly, using words as precision instruments to dissect human darkness.

Golds delivers one gut-punch after another” – Scott Von Doviak, author of Lowdown Road“With every new word he writes, I’m further Golds is a once-in-a-generation literary talent" – Rob Parker, author of Audible Bestseller Far From the Tree
