In a seedy suburban house in Spokane, a small-time crook formerly from New York, Vince Camden, pockets his weekly allotment of stolen credit cards and heads off to his witness-protection job at a donut shop. At the shop he takes a shine to a regular named Kelly, who works for a local politician. Somehow he finds himself and the politician in a parking lot at three in the morning, giving the slip to a couple of menacing thugs. And then he crosses the path of a young detective—and discovers his credit-scam partner, lying dead in his passport-photo office with a Cheerio-size bullet-hole in his head. No one writing crime novels today tells a story or sketches a character with more freshness or élan than Jess Walter. \u003cem\u003eCitizen Vince\u003c\/em\u003e is his funniest and grittiest book yet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harper Perennial","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799753871615,"sku":"9780061577659","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780061577659_s600x595.jpg?v=1781972985","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780061577659","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
