"My hat is off to Stephen Graham Jones, because he is the kind of author that makes the frustrated writer inside every book reviewer cringe with self-doubt."—PopMatters

A novel written in second person. The town is Stanton, Texas, population three thousand; the private investigator is disgraced Midland homicide detective Nicholas Bruiseman, who's so down on his luck that he's forced to take a job as a live-in security guard for the town's lone storage facility. This is his new life—starting over with nothing in the town he grew up in.

      A live-in security guard at a storage facility in his tiny Texas hometown, disgraced homicide detective Nicholas Bruiseman is a pariah. But then former cheerleader-type Gwen asks him for some unlicensed protection, which leads to a lot of trouble and a dead body. VERDICT The plot is Big Sleep-complicated, the atmosphere edgy, and the narration intriguingly second person. For readers of literary fiction and mystery fans willing to take a dare.
