Synopsis

A fast-paced and sleek L.A. crime thriller from beloved Edgar Award-winning author Thomas Perry.

Manco Kapak is tired and he wants out. All in one night, the aging, but seasoned strip club owner finds himself robbed, two of his cars destroyed, and his house broken into. Keeping calm and collected, Kapak sends his men out to scour the streets of L.A. to find the culprit. Their search leads them to an innocent, yet wily newcomer, Joe Carver, who proves to be a headache for Kapak and his men.

Enraged by Carver’s antics, Kapak is blind to the real burglar, Jefferson Davis Falkins. Now joined by his sadistic and reckless girlfriend, Falkins finds that robbing Manco Kapak is something he and his new beau are rather good at. So, they hit him again.

Beset by robberies, break-ins, and vandalism, Kapak also finds himself squeezed between a ruthless drug lord who’s grown suspicious of their partnership, and a cunning police lieutenant tasked with solving this increasingly complex and violent case.

The bizarre series of events explodes with a high-profile triple killing, embroiling Kapak, Carver, and Falkins as possible suspects, bringing all three into dangerous territory. As Kapak grows desperate to shed himself of this madness and his fading empire, can he find what it takes to “get out”?
