WILEY'S SHUFFLE by LONO WAIWAIOLE
|
SummaryIn Wiley's world, violence runs deep and loyalty runs even
deeper. So when a prostitute named Miriam gets attached to
the wrong guy, Wiley leaves the poker table, grabs his best
friend Leon and starts looking for a way to shake her
loose. Trouble is, the guy is a sociopathic pimp named
Dookie who's on the lucky streak of a lifetime and who is
starting to feel invincible. Their quest takes Wiley and Leon to Vegas and L.A.-plus a
few desolate, dangerous spots in-between-until they reach a
brutal, vicious showdown back on the streets of the
Portland they all call home. To Wiley, it's more clear than
ever that the only things worth knowing are who's on your
side and who's got your back. Wiley has emerged as one of
the darkest yet most human characters in modern noir
fiction, and Waiwaiole has hit his stride in Wiley's
Shuffle, a powerful second novel from a true talent.
