James Crumley 
Final Country [EPUB ebook] 

This complex thriller is so hardboiled it makes Ellroy and Connelly read like Simon and Garfunkel it s good. Very good Time Out Settling and calming down is never easy. Especially not for Milo Milodragovitch. He s set up a bar, and found a woman he thinks he may love, but he can t leave his work as a private investigator behind entirely. When he crosses paths with ex-con Enos Walker, and as the bullets fly, he s launched on to a cocaine- and alcohol-fuelled quest to solve a 20-year-old mystery. It s a journey that will take him racing across Texas, Montana and Mexico, with barely a moment for him or you to catch breath A brilliant achievement, with Crumley returned to his full powers, seeming to say with each assured sentence, Yeah, I m an old dog, but I still wag the baddest bone Publishers Weekly
