The first in the excellent Strange and Quinn series from 'The
coolest writer in America' GQ. Derek Strange and Terry Quinn are
ex-cops turned private detectives in Washington, DC. Hired to
investigate the death of an off-duty black police officer at the
hands of a white policeman, Strange and Quinn are faced with the
institutionalised racism of the nation's most poorly trained and
dangerous police force. As the two private detectives confront the
degradation of the city's flourishing drug trade, they find
themselves up against some of the most implacable, dead-eyed
killers ever to grace the pages of a novel. In RIGHT AS RAIN George
Pelecanos introduces a memorable pair of characters into the
grittily real Washington DC landscape which has led to him being
acclaimed as 'a great writer' THE TIMES
