NOBODY’S ANGEL (Eddie Miles, 1)
Description:
Chicago cabbie Eddie Miles isn’t looking for trouble. He’s just trying to get through another tough night in a dangerous city. When he stumbles on a teenage prostitute left for dead, he finds himself unable to turn away.
"Nobody's Angel is a gem… which doesn't contain a wasted word or a false note. . . its real beauty lies in Eddie's bittersweet existence and the special romance and danger of the cabdriver's life.” --Washington Post
“The cynical, melancholy cabbie point of view is perfect for this kind of neon-lit, noir-tinged, saxophone-scored prose poem, and Clark hits all the right notes.” -- Booklist
“There’s a world of intriguing and memorable detail expertly packed into two-hundred pages and just the right amount of heartache. The book’s close features one of the best final lines of any book I’ve ever read. Please don’t pick it up and read that last page first, it’s so worth getting there naturally.” --Barnes & Noble Ransom Notes
“Nobody’s Angel is a powerhouse of a book, a genuine work of noir and one of the best books of the year. . . This is an incredible book that you will not soon forget.” --Bookreporter.com
