The third helping of Nick Stefanos that Pelecanos offers up is his best yet and truly shows his early growth as an author. The three books together form a foundational trilogy that any fan of detective fiction should seek out. ( ) This is the story of Nick Stefanos a part time bar tender/ private eye full time drinker. Based in Washington in the mid 1990s. Nick witnesses a murder when he is totally steamboats. He wants to help solve the case when the victims friend goes missing he teams up with another private eye called Jack LaDuke together they uncover a drugs/gay porn ring. SPOILER ALERT The rescue they missing boy who a few days later is murdered. They go back with all guns blazing and kill the baddies. ok book I liked the characters. Pelecanos is a great writer. I was very close to chalking this book up as another cookie cutter crime fiction.. I think "dreck" was the word that came to mind. Until the last five chapters or so that really allowed the novel to come alive and really embrace a noir vision. I would recommend Pelecanos, particularly the Nick Stefanos series. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

"You already been a punk. Least you can do is go out like a man." Then a dull popping sound and a quiet splash. In his third appearance in George Pelecanos's acclaimed series, Nick Stefanos has been spending too much time with bad women and bad booze. Which is why he wakes up one blurry morning on the banks of the Anacostia River, hungover and miserable -- and now a witness to a murder. With the help of a partner as straight-arrow as Nick is bent, Nick decides to track down the killer, an investigation that leads them through the roughest part of the nation's capital, and into the blackest parts of the human soul.
