Snaps with authentic street talk and with a switch-hitting plot... has something important to say about trust and treachery (Washington Post)

Nick Stefanos, having earned his P.I. license, quickly discovers that snapping photos of unfaithful husbands does not make for a fulfilling job. Tending bar one night at the Spot, Nick is visited by his high-school friend, Billy Goodrich. Billy's wife is gone. Nick agrees to find her. And with that first step, he sets out on a one-way trip through a sewer of theft, intrigue and love. George P. Pelecanos' reputation goes from strength to strength. As Barry Gifford puts it, 'To miss out on Pelecanos would be criminal.'
