From the author of Dirty Sally and Body Scissors, a no-holds-barred thriller set in the seedy underbelly of Austin, Texas
In his pulse-quickening new thriller, Michael Simon continues to do for Austin what James Ellroy has done for L.A. It's 1995 and Texas has a new governor, the heir to a political dynasty. As pols and lobbyists converge on the capital, a former child star and recent porn actress is found murdered and a thirteen-year-old boy is sent out to make a treacherous living on the streets. This is just some of what Dan Reles, Austin Homicide's only New Yorker and only Jew—and its leading loose cannon—has to deal with in Simon's latest gritty mystery.
