Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - In 1950s Seattle, the rain washes away everything but the sins. Private Investigator Jack Rourke is a disgraced ex-cop drowning his grief in cheap bourbon and dead-end cases. But his downward spiral halts when a terrified jazz singer named Lily Hutton walks into his office, pleading for protection from a vicious stalker. What begins as a routine bodyguard gig quickly plunges Jack into the darkest depths of the city's underworld. His investigation at The Dry Rain nightclub puts him in the crosshairs of the ruthless Mancini crime family, untouchable real estate moguls, and a military-grade narcotics ring. When a mutilated body turns up and the police circle Jack as their prime suspect, the case completely shatters. He discovers the men hunting him are protecting a conspiracy that could drown the city-and the frightened woman who hired him, leaving behind only a lingering scent of vanilla and almonds, is hiding a deadly, vengeful secret of her own. To clear his name, Jack must confront his past before he becomes another ghost in the rain. A Scent of Ruin is a gripping, hardboiled noir mystery packed with atmospheric tension, brutal betrayals, and a breathless twist.…

For me that monkey represented thoughts of suicide that became heavier and more frequent over time. I learned that my own mental Depression is what provided fertile ground for the monkey to grow. This animal clung to my back for years whispering in my ear that all my troubles would go away if I just worked up the courage to kill myself. Sometimes I agreed with the monkey of death. Starting during childhood, that little bastard hitched a ride on my shoulders and got bigger and heavier as I grew up. He's still barely clinging to my back and still tries to talk to me occasionally.
