The Savage Noble Death of Babs Dionne

The Savage Noble Death of Babs Dionne by Ron Currie

The Savage Noble Death of Babs Dionne is a gripping, mythic thriller about the fates of a powerful crime family in Maine, where love, vengeance, and family loyalty collide.  

Babs Dionne, a proud Franco-American matriarch and ruthless leader, runs the town of Waterville with a tight grip. With the help of her loyal lieutenants—girlfriends since childhood—and her troubled Marine vet daughter, Lori, she controls the drug trade in Little Canada. When a drug kingpin learns that his business is slipping in the northeast, he sends a menacing figure known only as *The Man* to investigate. Meanwhile, Babs’s youngest daughter, Sis, has mysteriously vanished, a disappearance that soon leads to tragedy. In just 24 hours, Sis will be found dead, and the town will brace for the full force of Babs’s fury. 

With sharp wit and raw emotion, Ron Currie delivers a crime saga like no other, exploring the fierce love and brutal retribution of a matriarch whose family bonds are as much a curse as they are a source of strength.
