"Private-eye tropes like decadent upper-crust parties
and corrupt cops abound, while sudden action scenes cut through Ethan's hazy,
guilt-ridden flashback narration, such as when he smashed a drug pusher's face
with a skateboard. It all feels less like a self-contained story than a prelude
for a dark implosion heading Ethan's way. Series fans will ride along in
anticipation." -<b><i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br />
"Phillips imbues the sun-drenched splendor of Southern
California with a nostalgic mournfulness perfectly keyed to Brubaker's script.
Focusing on the fragile bond between Ethan and Anna exposes new depths in both
of the characters, while building to a wrenchingly emotional climax."
-<b><i>Library Journal </i>(starred review)</b><br />
"Oh man, this book pushed every crime fiction button for me... Bliss."
- Patton Oswalt
Bestselling crime noir masters Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips bring us a new original graphic novel starring troublemaker-for-hire Ethan Reckless.
It's 1988 and Ethan has been hired for his strangest case yet: finding the secrets of a Los Angeles real estate mogul. How hard could that be, right? Only what starts as a deep dive into the life of a stranger will soon take a deadly turn, and find Ethan risking everything that still matters to him.
Another smash hit from the award-winning creators of RECKLESS, PULP, MY HEROES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN JUNKIES, CRIMINAL, and KILL OR BE KILLED -- and a must-have for all Brubaker and Phillips fans!
