Mean Business on North Ganson Street is an upcoming crime thriller novel written by S. Craig Zahler, author of Wraiths of the Broken Land (2013) and A Congregation of Jackals (2011), which was nominated for the Spur and Peacemaker awards. Mean Business on North Ganson Street will be published on September 30 of this year by Thomas Dunne Books.[1] The story: A mouthy detective named Jules Bettinger relocates to Victory, Missouri, a collapsed rustbelt city, where he and his new partner investigate a double homicide in which two policemen were killed—an event that might be the beginning of a series of executions.[2]

Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to the novel to make it into a feature film, as a re-teaming of Django Unchained with Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx. DiCaprio will also produce the film.[3]
