From the author of Stray Dogs comes a second novel, another noirish tale of greed, deception and redemption.

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Signed by author on title page in black fountain ink. Everything's a racket for Jeffty Kittridge, a thirty- seven-year-old ex-wannabe scriptwriter living on the skids in Hollywood--the two-bit cons he pulls for spending money; the way he convinces himself th…at he's not a drunk between every shot of booze he kicks back; the way he tries to assure Dumas, the local shark, that he's just about to pay off his 15K debt . . . Except he's not good at any of that. He's been in jail twice (and the state's got a bad attitude about seeing someone the third time); that bug he just felt crawling up his neck is most likely the first installment of the DTs; and Dumas recently delivered a fairly emphatic payment-due reminder: a couple of his goons busted two of Jeffty's fingers. The fact is, Jeffty's a loser, big as they come, and things aren't about to change up for him anytime soon: "I would've felt . . . near terminally depressed," he tells us as his story begins to unfold, "but I was so used to my life all I felt was content. Then he stumbles on salvation: a dirt-caked, street-hardened, exquisitely beautiful young homeless woman named Mona--Jeffty prefers to think of her as Angel--who inspires both his love and the idea for the perfect con. It's Jeffty's chance to hit it big, and to be set for good in his new life with his new love. "The thing about love," Jeffty declares, "is no matter how twisted, or wrong, or evil, it never dies." But as the momentum of the con carries him closer and closer to what he imagines will be a moment of blissed-out consummation with his angel Mona, Jeffty discovers there are some severe exceptions to his rule. Second thriller by the author of STRAY DOGS, EVERYBODY SMOKES IN HELL, THE DRIFT, and THOSE WHO WALK IN DARKNESS. Ridley also wrote the original story for David O. Russell's move, 'Three Kings,' and is the Academy Award-winning screenwriter of 2013 Best Picture winner, '12 Years A Slave." He is the creator/writer/director of the terrific new ABC drama, "American Crime." As new, unread, first edition, first printing, in fine, mylar-protected dust jacket.{Not remainder-marked or price-clipped} M64. Signed by Author(s).
