A CrimeReads "Best Noir Novel of 2021" "A sucker punch noir that is also a powerful and haunting allegory of work, debt, and power." -Richard Price "An unreliable narrator makes this thriller all the more gripping." - WBUR A down and dirty gem of a tale-a twisty and twisted crime novel that evokes the worldsof George V. Higgins, Patricia Highsmith, and David Mamet, destined to be a Neo-noir classic. Rick andFrank are recovering addicts and accomplished house thieves. They do not steal randomly - - they steal according to order, hired by a mysterious handler. The jobs run routinely until they're tasked with taking aseeminglyworthless trophy- an object that generates interest and obsession out of proportion to its apparent value. Just as the robbery is completed, the two are involved in a freak car accident that sets off a chain of events and Frank disappears with the trophy. As Rick tries to find Frank, he is forced to confront his past, upending both his livelihood and his sense of reality. The narrative builds steadily into a powerful and shocking climax. Reveling in its con-artistry and double-crosses, Just Thieves is a nail-biting, noirish exploration of the working lives of two unforgettable crooks and the hidden forces that rule and ruin their lives.
Ideal for readers interested in crime & mystery.
