One for My Baby

"This is how to write noir. Brilliant."—Allan Guthrie, author of Edgar-nominated KISS HER GOODBYE Like many Americans nowadays, Mark Sharpton has 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 retired mobster, 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 crime, sex, and free enterprise in the contemporary American dream.
