"This is the dark side of the American dream: blunt and brutal and every page is painfully portrayed by one of the greatest practitioners of the dark novel working today." —Tony Black, author of The Last Tiger and His Father's Son
"This is how to write noir. Brilliant." —Allan Guthrie, author of Edgar-nominated Kiss Her Goodbye
Mark Sharpton is a modern outlaw. Like many people nowadays, he's had to take a second job to make ends meet. When not performing as a lounge musician, he commits armed robberies.
It's all crime all the time in Phoenix, Arizona.
When Mark robs a joint owned by a mafia boss, a witness gets a look at his face. Then he falls in obsessive lust with her, and the mob and the cops team up to get rid of him, aided by the husband of one of his casual sex partners...
One for My Baby is a neo-noir tale of murder, romance, sex and free enterprise in the contemporary American Dream.
