A propos de cet article

1st edition, June 1997, with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine,as new, in fine dust jacket, not price clipped, in protective mylar cover. The author's critically acclaimed first book, an EDGAR AWARD Finalist. SIGNED (signature only) by the author on the title page. "This jaunty, humorous, and captivating first novel features a cast of quirky California characters and their misadventures. Lush-bodied Marianna picks on middle-aged co-worker Harold?who wrote a tell-all book about used cars?for help when a car salesman cheats her. Thus begins an itinerant tale of scam and counterscam, car distribution corruption, tender-hearted strippers, attempted murder, accidental murder, car chases, outwitted hoodlums, vituperative ex-wives, pot-smoking brothers, and incipient love. Quick shifts of scene steadily increase the suspense, but this is one of those books that ends too soon." --- LIBRARY JOURNAL. N° de réf. du vendeur 011394

A propos de ce titre

Présentation de l'éditeur:

Ex-used car salesman Harold Dodge can't resist helping his beautiful co-worker Marianna to retrieve her car from a low-life dealer - a con-man not unlike the 'bird dog' Harold used to be. But what should have been a straightforward exchange begins to get out of hand... Bird Dog is a sharply observed, witty and affectionate look at the absurd criminal underworld of LA from a talent with a real future.
