Book Reviews of Shame the Devil
Book Review: Pelecano's eight novel is his best work to date.
Summary: 5 Stars
Adventures of pi Nicky Stefanos and ex-small-time drug dealer Dimitri Karras continue in Washington DC with this magnificient book which is George P. Pelecano's best work to date. You might call it crime fiction, I'd call it simply literature. Shame The Devil is compelling and engaging study of guilt, loss and substance abuse as much it is high-octane & streetwise crime noir. Also recommended: King Suckerman (tribute to blaxploitation), Sweet Forever and Nick Stefanos trilogy: Firing Offence, Nick's Trip and Down by The River. Pelecanos has also written noirish Big Blowdown which is set in 40's/50's Washington. Read them all. PS. Does anyone has idea where can I obtain Shoedog - Pelecanos third book?
