In a neighborhood plagued with violence, Dave Brandstetter uncovers a corporate crime.

Gifford Gardens has gone to hell: Persistent flooding has reduced the neighborhood to a slum, a battleground for rival gangs. Anyone who can afford to leave has already pulled up stakes, and Paul and Angela Myers are among those who are left. To make ends meet, Paul takes on long-haul truck driving, which is as dangerous as it is lucrative, and it's not long before the job gets him killed.

One night, Paul's truck flies off a cliff and explodes in midair. Did he fall asleep at the wheel, or was he murdered? Keen-eyed insurance investigator Dave Brandstetter suspects a conspiracy. While digging into Paul's past, Dave will uncover a connection between his untimely death and the happier years of Gifford Gardens.

I liked the book. It was well written, interesting with colorful characters that made it fun outside of the seriousness of the story and the narration gave it that extra noir feel, like a gritty detective story should be read. I did find it hard to deal with the overt racism but it was commonplace for the time setting so I was able to deal with it. Overall good story and narration so I recommend it especially if you like old school detective stories.
