Richard Price meets A Simple Plan in this soulful, riveting
novel that shows us that no matter how high the odds, there
can always be hope.
Douglas “Deesh” Sharp has managed to stay out of trouble
living in the Bronx, paying his rent by hauling junk for
cash. But on the morning Deesh and two pals head upstate to
dispose of a sealed oil drum whose contents smell and weigh
enough to contain a human corpse, he becomes mixed up in a
serious crime. When his plans for escape spiral terribly out
of control, Deesh quickly finds himself a victim of
betrayal—and the prime suspect in the murders of three white
men. When Jan, a young jockey from the gritty underworld of the
Finger Lakes racetrack breaks her silence about gambling and
organized crime, Deesh learns how the story of her past
might, against all odds, free him from a life behind bars.
Interweaving Deesh’s and Jan’s gripping narratives, Watch Me
Go is a wonderfully insightful work that examines how we
love, leave, lose, redeem, and strive for justice. At once
compulsively readable, thought-provoking, and complex, it is
a suspenseful, compassionate meditation on the power of love
and the injustices of hate.
