FINALIST: Best First PI Novel, Shamus Awards¿¿¿ It's the year 2000 and 78-year-old Mickey O'Rourke has been a Los Angeles PI for a very long time. He'd thought he'd seen it all until the disappearance of porn star Jeffrey Strokes sends him from the sex-filled studios of the San Fernando Valley to the desperate streets of Compton where Mickey's final case becomes his biggest test. Flash back to 1998 and struggling hair salon employee Jemeka Johnson, suspecting boyfriend Ray-Ray of infidelity, follows him one night from their East Compton home to what turns out to be a drug deal gone sour where a twist of fate finds Jemeka tossed onto a dark and dangerous path -- one that offers huge reward for someone bold enough to seize it. Meanwhile, in 1999, tired of robbing small-town diners and shooting bad dope in filthy motel rooms, newlyweds Richie and Alabama return to LA in search of the perfect score. Paths cross and past meets present as bad decisions hurtle toward worse consequences -- and no one will ever be the same.
