From the author of Come Closer comes the most highly acclaimed-and unusual-thriller of the year. Josephine, a former addict, is offered a thousand dollars to find a suburban couple's missing daughter. But the search will take her into the dark underbelly of New York she thought she'd escaped-and a web of deceit that threatens to destroy her.

An interesting take on the PI genre. Instead of the drunken male PI, we have a just clean, former prostitute PI sent back into her former world to look for someone just like she used to be. The fun is due to this world, it is difficult to trust anyone as even the cops see her as a junkie. Lots of good turns too and a great ending.

Dark, ugly and tense - noir thriller about former addict and missing girl in the 50s New York. Perfect one sitting read, written in a very clear and crisp language, strong female character and with interesting twisty story.

Thank you @Cinfhen for this page-turner 😘

50s noir, NYC, Hells Kitchen, mobsters, Bowery Street, dope fiends, junkies, Bryant Park, call girls and street walkers all wrapped up in this tight atmospheric novel. A true page turner. Made the first leg of my flight fly by.

I‘m only taking two physical books with me on my trip. I have a bunch waiting when I arrive plus my Kindle is pretty full. I‘m still not liking Fight Club but Dope is excellent so far❣️

writerlibrarian I've read dope a few years ago. 50s New York is amazing. It was a hit and miss for me. Parts I loved others I didn't. YMMV. 5y
emilyhaldi Are you off to NYC?! If so in SURE you have plenty of books waiting upon arrival 😜 5y
BarbaraBB Have a safe trip with lots of family and books upon arrival 💜 5y

rockpools Have an amazing time! 5y
britt_brooke I haven't started Fight Club yet, but my hopes are not high. I've read four of his books, liking two, but hating the other two. For some reason, I keep trying, though. I keep doing this Gaiman, too. 5y
Reviewsbylola Have a fun trip! I don‘t know if I could survive with two books, especially if I wasn‘t liking one of them. 5y

Cinfhen I‘ve only read fiction by Bill Clegg @Suet624 and I found his writing very good. I‘m shocked he was a junkie!!!! (edited) 5y
TrishB Thanks 👍🏻 will make my mind up eventually! 5y
Suet624 I know. From his usage, I‘m surprised he came out on the other side. 5y
BarbaraBB @Cinfhen wow, he was a junkie? I didn‘t know @Suet624 5y
Suet624 Yes, the book in this photo is an astonishing description of his life during his drug habit. @barbaraBB (edited) 5y
Cinfhen I‘m really interested in reading it @BarbaraBB @Suet624 amazing that he made it through 5y

Hiding from the intermittent snow and hail storms outside. Gotta love Montana weather...🙁

This book BLEW MY MIND. Twisty, creepy, woman-driven noir.
