Known for his tight prose and unflinching realism, Lacy crafts a story where survival often depends on how far a man is willing to go-and what he's willing to become in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet against a gritty American backdrop, the novel follows characters caught in a web of crime, betrayal, and escalating consequences.
