Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Winner of the British Book Award for Best Crime and Thriller Novel 2017 Winner of the CWA Goldsboro Gold Dagger 2016 Winner of the CWA John Creasey New Blood Dagger 2016 Winner of the LA Times Book Prize 2017 Shortlisted for the British Book Award for Overall Book of the Year 2017 Shortlisted for the Edgar Award for Best First Novel 2017 Finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Fiction 2017 Shortlisted for the Barry Award for Best First Novel 2017 When East, a low-level lookout for a Los Angeles drug organisation, loses his watch house in a police raid, his boss recruits him for a very different job: a road trip - straight down the middle of white, rural America - to assassinate a judge in Wisconsin. Having no choice, East and a crew of untested boys - including his trigger-happy younger brother, Ty - leave the only home they've ever known in a nondescript blue van, with a roll of cash, a map and a gun they shouldn't have. Along the way, the country surprises East. The blood on his hands isn't the blood he expects. And he reaches places where only he can decide which way to go - or which person to become. By way of The Wire and in the spirit of Scott Smith's A Simple Plan and Richard Price's Clockers, Dodgers is itself something entirely original: a gripping literary crime novel with a compact cast whose intimate story opens up to become a reflection on the nature of belonging and reinvention. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
