Mystery | Thriller Crime
In this riveting hardboiled page-turner, our hero is Conway Sax, a smart-talking former alcoholic who owes everything heβs got to the Barnburners, the Alcoholics Anonymous group who saved him. So when they have a problem, he fixes it. When obnoxious blowhard Barnburner Tander Phigg gives him a call, Conway reluctantly agrees to help. But then Tander turns up dead, and Conway becomes the copsβ top suspect. He needs to catch the killer, not only to clear himself, but because heβs also the kind of guy who honors his promises, even when the guy he made them to is dead. Conway Sax isnβt a hired gun, or a sophisticated urbanite; heβs just a car mechanic trying to make his way. A blue collar guy who doesnβt know much about being part of a family but is smart enough to know he needs to learn. Heβll break your heart if youβre not careful.
