Mixing the very best talents in crime writing with red-hot artists, the "Vertigo Crime" series represents a new era in four-colour capers - for adults only! Richard 'Junk' Junkin is an ex-pro-sportsman, his career ended by injury (and a nasty gambling problem), who now spends his life selling cars in New Jersey and lusting after his boss' daughter Victoria. When the boss asks him to be her bodyguard on a night out clubbing, Junk leaps at the chance; but he'll soon discover that all Victoria wants is someone to do her dirty work...someone who wants to get filthy rich. Bestselling, Eisner Award-winning writer Brian Azzarello ("Joker", "100 Bullets") and artist Victor Santos ("Young Ronin") present this twisty tale of lust and larceny.
