No one knows the identity of Boston Teran. Some say that he is a well-known writer using a pseudonym. Others say Boston Teran is the name used by a small group of writers working together to create one identity. Either way, God Is a Bullet, which has been described as "Raymond Chandler on speed," is currently being adapted for film by writer/producer Ehren Kruger (Reindeer Games, Blood and Chocolate, The Ring and Transformers). His just-published fifth book, The Creed of Violence, was just bought by Universal for the second highest price ever paid for a manuscript. Todd Field, whose recent writing efforts were Little Children and In the Bedroom, was hired to adapt the novel for the screen. This is the author's eighth book.
