MRT writes about a backhanded pan of Pelecanos' best
novel.
" Thank you for your hardboiled take on The Big Blowdown,
Ned. It's good to see
> you haven't lost your edge."
For those who prefer the simple crime plot to the spreadout
novel of growth--with crime (BB and Sweet Forever)--, I still
recommend Shoedog to Suckerman...but either will do it.
