Fast Lane
by Dave Zeltserman
Denver private eye Johnny Lane is so busy he has to contract out his overflow cases. When a young woman approaches him to find her birth parents, he's willing to take the case for almost nothing. Almost. It would be a breath of fresh air after all the lowlife cases he's now stuck with . . . and there is something about the woman. the last thing Johnny expects is the path the case leads him down. As the chasm between words and reality grows wider, past and present deeds start unraveling with deadly force. "For those of us who believed Jim Thompson would never be equaled, great tidings, he's back in the form of Dave Zeltserman. Hilarious in the darkest fashion, violent, bitter, psychotic and unputdownable... FAST LANE left me bruised, battered and exhilarated." KEN BRUEN
