The Cut

George P. Pelecanos

Synopsis:
Since he got home from Iraq, Spero Lucas has carved out a good life for himself, enjoying his youth and his independence, and making a name as the kind of person who gets jobs done quietly and effectively, usually just on the right side of the law. A quick case for a criminal defense attorney leads him into the world of a high-profile marijuana dealer, currently in prison but with a long reach, who wants to find out who's been stealing from his dealers. Soon Lucas uncovers a tangle of connections that lead dangerously close to some people in high places - and to Lucas's own family.

Rich with the tension, atmosphere, and keen sense of character that have made George Pelecanos one of the most acclaimed writers at work today, A WALK IN THE NIGHT is crime fiction at its very best.
