City in Ruins (2024) Signed First Edition Reference

City in Ruins was published by William Morrow in 2024, concluding the Danny Ryan Trilogy and — if Winslow’s retirement announcement holds — his career as a fiction writer. Modeled on the Aeneid, the final volume follows Danny Ryan as he attempts to build a legitimate life in Las Vegas while his criminal past refuses to let him go.

The Book

As potentially Winslow’s final novel, City in Ruins carries valedictory significance. The Las Vegas setting — a city built on reinvention and the erasure of history — provides a fitting backdrop for a trilogy (and a career) about the impossibility of escaping your past.
