'Flawless of its kind - never a false word, phrase, rhythm, gesture.' - The New Republic'Every American crime writer of the past 30 years owes a debt to George V Higgins.
Higgins is the daddy. Read him and rejoice' Val McDermidJerry 'Digger' Doherty is an ex-con and proprietor of a workingman's Boston bar, who supplements his income with the occasional 'odd job', like stealing live checks or picking up hot goods.
His brother's a priest, his wife's a nag, and he has a deadly appetite for martinis and gambling.
On a trip to Vegas, the Digger finds himself in the sights of a loan shark known as 'The Greek'.
Luckily - if you call it luck - the Digger has been let in on a little job that can turn his gambling debt into a profit, if only he can pull it off without getting himself killed.
