    About this ebook

    Hopper Garland is good at finding lost girls. When his last target tries to taker her life upon being discovered, he begins to rethink his career as a private eye. However, a persuasive offer from a sexy woman has him back on the case, chasing a missing sixteen-year-old pregnant girl from the swampy ruins of post-Katrina New Orleans to the neon grime of Las Vegas. Along the way he’ll have to contend with a rogue’s gallery of henchmen, pornographers, and his own incestuous sister. After he makes a deal with a sociopathic murderer who believes he’s found the secret to eternal life, Hopper will relearn that old saw: some things are better off left alone.

    “Okay, you tough readers. You like it so raw? Time to put up or shut up. Stick your face into the pages of XXX Shamus. Turn away before the last page and I’ll kick your fucking teeth out. Take it. Take it all.” —Victor Gischler, author and Marvel Comics writer

    “Danger. Keep your head and hands inside this ride at all times. Then wash them afterwards. Wish I woulda wrote it.” —David James Keaton, author of Pig Iron

    “Five stars with the proviso that this is an extreme book, and definitely not for those readers of delicate sensibility.” —Pearce Hansen, author of Street Raised

      No wonder literary critics of the time panned the book. It did not pretend. A perfect thing for a book to avoid doing in a year in which for the very briefest of moments, and in the very slightest of ways, we could all see that the veil had been lift

      A few years ago, in a moment of white-hot inspiration, I wrote the climactic scene of a book I had only half finished. The novel is a love story, and at that point, one of the few things I knew about how it would end was that one of the characters wo

      One thing you could always say for me: I was a finisher. I may not have been a great reader, but by God I was dogged, and if I made it through the opening 10th of a book, then I was going all the way to the end. Though this started as merely an incli
