DESCRIPTION - THE JONES MEN of the title are a fascinating group of individuals inexorably entwined in a maze of deadly drugs, fast money, chrome-laden Cadillacs, and quick, violent death: the wholesalers, the dealers, the addicts, the narcotics police dogging their tracks, and the corrupted cops paid off to cover them. From the brutalizing backdrop of the big city slum to the palatial fireside of a rambling mansion deep in the hills of suburban Green Gate Estates, this gripping novel chronicles the rise and fall of Lennie Jack, a 26-year-old Vietnam veteran working long hours as a middle-level heroin dealer. In the clandestine world of jones, a casual slip of the tongue can be fatal. Using bits of overheard conversation, Lennie Jack engineers the hijacking of a large shipment of heroin bound for the drug factory of Willis McDaniel, a powerful west side wholesaler. Lennie Jack takes his small band of young, street-hardened hoods and hides in a shabby downtown motel. Then, in a series of chilling back-road meetings with a crafty underworld 'fix-it' man, he launches a methodical challenge to McDaniel's long rule, sweating all the while to stay a step ahead of the wholesaler's hired killers, as well as law enforcement officers of the narcotics squad. As scene after scene unfolds, a sense of impending terror feeds upon itself, building to a shattering climax as the outcome of the jones men's raw and terrifying life-style becomes frighteningly apparent. inventory #26107.
