On the subject of gritty and drug wars....

Brace yourselves for the political shitstorm which should accompany the
release, just before the election, of Kill the Messenger (about Gary Webb
and Dark Alliance).

Finally secured a Jim Thompson novel, Pop. 1280.......Jo Nesbø flaks on the
cover.......a great read.

love,
