The Martini Shot and Other Stories: From Co-Creator of Hit HBO Show 'We Own This City'
Author: George Pelecanos
Format: Paperback
Number of Pages: 304
A collection of stories, mostly gritty, low-level crime stories set on Washington DC's mean streets. The Martini Shot itself is set in the world of TV, featuring a scriptwriter on a popular cop show. When a member of the crew is murdered, the screenwriter decides to track down the perpetrators himself, to see if, as a writer, he can do more than just talk the talk. 'George Pelecanos is a stunningly good chronicler of the mean streets of Washington DC ... For anyone who has somehow missed out on Pelecanos, he is up there with Elmore Leonard and even Chandler for street dialogue and inner city settings, and there is always a pleasing moral undertow to his work' Daily Mail on The Night Gardener
