Description
Recently released from prison, Ernest “Stick” Stickley Jr. returns to a world of dangerous opportunities and finds himself drawn into a drug-money deal that quickly spirals out of control. Forced to navigate shifting loyalties, ruthless criminals, and the threat of betrayal, Stick must rely on his intelligence and hard-earned instincts to survive. Moving from the bright, volatile streets of Florida to the darker terrain of Detroit, the novel explores crime, reinvention, loyalty, and the difficulty of escaping one’s past. With sharp dialogue, suspenseful plotting, sudden violence, and wry social observation, it showcases Elmore Leonard’s distinctive crime-fiction style.
