Product Description

Synopsis
The fifth and final novel in the Edgar Award-nominated and Golden Dagger Award-winning "Jack Flippo" series. Wesley Joy is a defender of drug scum living in semiretirement in Galveston. He's best pals with seedy Dallas PI Jack Flippo - they once worked together as prosecutors - so when the cops find heroin in Joy's car after he's pulled over speeding, Flippo gets the inevitable call for help. Looking into the circumstances behind Joy's arrest, Flippo finds a life in a mess as big as his own. Money, drugs, and sex are at the center of a dangerous tangle that involves wisecrackin' renegade DEA agents, crooked lawyers, and a bitter reporter determined to use Joy's "unjust incarceration" as the stepping stone to a big-time job in, say, Abilene. Flippo makes a great antihero: he doesn't like who he's become but can't muster the courage to make a change. Until he can, his best shots at happiness will come from unregistered.38s and bottles of cheap bourbon. This is the hard-boiled novel at its grittiest and most unsentimental. Jack Flippo is the real deal.
