Produktinformationen zu „Deviant Behavior (ePub)“
"[A] dark D.C. tale with . . . an addictive neo-noir sensibility" by the award-winning journalist and New York Times-bestselling author of Tattoos & Tequila (Publishers Weekly).
With a pretty wife, a new baby, and a job reporting for the Washington Herald, Jonathan Seede is the picture of urban respectability. But a secret freelance project is drawing him into places most people never dare to go. Just ten blocks from the White House, on the notorious Fourteenth Street strip, a war is raging over drugs, prostitution, and other deviant behaviors-and Seede is on the front lines.
When his family abruptly leaves him, Seede embarks on a journey into his own dark urges. Along the way, he encounters pimps and hustlers, an accidental hooker, an honest cop, a storefront prophet who deals marijuana, a beautiful teenage runaway, a crack-addicted music legend, an A-list gay activist, and a diminutive billionaire who is searching for the answers to life's greatest questions in a crystal skull.
"Mike Sager's keen, journalistic eye and unique voice transfer to fiction with highly entertaining results. Deviant Behavior is a street-level, symphonic portrait of an American city." -George Pelecanos, author of The Night Gardener

Pressezitat
“Deviant Behavior swings between streetwise Elmore Leonardish dialogue and the quasi-mysticism of the adventurer’s diary, but Sager is a good writer with a sure hand. He knows where he’s going, so just ease into the wild ride and roll with the flow.” —William Gay, Paste“Do we give in to our urges, despite societal restrictions and possibly losing everything, or do we follow the rules and possibly lose ourselves? Sager answers those questions without saying a word about them, leaving it up to the reader to decipher what he means. And because of that . . . Deviant Behavior is a worthwhile read.” —Annamarya Scaccia, Philadelphia City Paper
“Sager studs his dark D.C. tale with sharp observations and an addictive neo-noir sensibility.” —Publishers Weekly
