It was published in 2015 by Arab Scientific Publishers, a Lebanese press based in Beirut.[1] Dabbous was 17 years old at the time of the publication,[2] attending French lycée College Protestant Francais.[3] Dabbous had written two novels before Bad Men, which he had failed to get published.[4] {{anchor|Plot}}BlurbThe sight of a dead body is nothing unusual for someone like former CIA agent John Kaiser. People wonder why he handles the sight of death with such stoicism. Some assume he is used to the scent of blood. Others think he must be emotionally calloused. Kaiser has his own reasons, though. According to him, people aren’t propelled by tragedy—they attract it. So why should he feel sorry for somebody who’s not entirely innocent? Compassion isn’t exactly among the required skills for a special investigator. All he has to do is solve crimes—in this case, finding out why successful New York City attorney Patrick Donnelly was brutally shot late at night in Central Park. Despite years working as a lone wolf, Kaiser finds himself teamed with two other investigators: Ángel Perez, a young ex-military hothead with a tendency to act first and apologize later and Vanessa Frost, a former FBI agent with control issues that threaten Kaiser’s ability to pull the pieces of the investigation together at his own pace. But once Kaiser and his team have identified the mastermind behind these gruesome killings, they uncover a deeper plot linked to an astonishing truth that slices backward from the volatile national presidential elections to the dawn of the nation’s history. What they find will rewrite the course of their investigation—and that of American history ReceptionRayyan Dabbbous was invited for interviews about his novel by major television networks in Lebanon, including Future TV[5] and MTV Lebanon[6] as well as major regional network OSN Yahala[2]. In the latter interview, he describes Bad Men as a social novel that deals with gun violence, racism and police brutality.
