Universal has picked up the film rights to Boston Teran’s Western gangster novel “The Creed of Violence” says the trades.
The book, set in the 1930s West, is a father-and-son redemption story that follows a federal agent who catches a gunrunner and forces the man to lead him to the head mobster in Mexico.
What the agent doesn’t realize is that the gunrunner is his long-lost son.
Teran also has written “God Is a Bullet” and “River of Night”.
