VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
(W) Christa Faust (A) Gary Phillips (CA) Fay Dalton Times Square, 1986: the home of New York's red light district where strip clubs, porno theatres and petty crime prevails. When a chance encounter for Peepbooth worker Roxy Bell leads to the brutal murder of a public access pornographer, the erotic performer and her punk rock ex-partner Nick Zero soon find themselves under fire from criminals, cops, and the city elite, as they begin to untangle a complex web of corruption leading right to city hall. Like The Naked City, there are eight million stories in The Deuce. This is one of them. Date Available: 10/12/2016
BONUS REVIEW by Shawn
 I liked Triggerman last week, but I liked this Hard Case offering even more. It very much captured the vibe of the pre-Disneyfied, dingy New York of the early '80's, while telling a story that would be right at home in a 50's noir film. Highly recommended for people who know that she's trouble the minute she walks through the door. I give it 7 out of 10 Grahams VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
