The Havana Room by Colin Harrison

Bill Wyeth is a successful attorney in his late thirties with a beautiful wife and son, who, by the merest chance, loses everything: family, job, status. Unmoored and alone, Wyeth drifts toward the city's darker corners, where restoration seems unlikely, redemption impossible. At his lowest ebb, Wyeth finds himself in an old-time Manhattan steakhouse where he becomes intrigued by the manager, Allison Sparks - sexy, complicated, and independent in all ways. She controls access to a private basement bar. This is the Havana Room, and what goes on in there, he's told, is secret and available only to a privileged few. When Wyeth agrees to help a friend of Allison's in concluding a last-minute midnight real-estate transaction he knows something is wrong. He soon finds himself sucked into a world far darker and more terrifying than anything he has previously known and he realises that he will have to unlock the deadly secrets of the Havana Room in order to survive.
Colin Harrison is the deputy editor of Harper's magazine and the author of Bodies Electric, Break and Enter and Afterburn. He lives with his wife, novelist Kathryn Harrison, in Brooklyn, USA
