The Garbage Man

He cleans up Albany's filth-one dead body at a time. When part¿time fraud investigator and full¿time smart¿mouth Steve Jobz gets fired after a disastrous HR meeting, the last thing he expects is a call from homicide. A severed head has turned up in an Albany dumpster-and the cops need Jobz's particular brand of troublemaking to dig up the truth. Dragged into a brutal case of decapitation, corruption, and revenge, Jobz finds himself wading through the city's sludge: crooked cops, femme fatales, political insiders, and a ruthless killer who thinks beheading is an art form. But the deeper Jobz digs, the more personal-and bloodier-the investigation becomes. Now the wise¿cracking PI must battle his demons, dodge a vengeful garbage man with a taste for pain, and stop a psychotic killer before another body hits the landfill. Tough, darkly funny, and pulse¿pounding, The Garbage Man delivers everything fans love about Vincent Zandri's award¿winning thrillers: gritty atmosphere, razor¿sharp dialogue, and a hero who keeps bleeding-but never quits. Perfect for readers of Michael Connelly, Don Winslow, Harlan Coben, and James Lee Burke who crave hard¿boiled noir with a modern edge and unapologetic punch. Nab your copy now!
