Streetwhys

Washington DC’s notorious detective, former drug-addled street denizen Dickie Cornish, faces off with bloodthirsty cops and the justice department in the latest thrilling release by award-winning noir author Christopher Chambers.

In StreetWhys, underground detective Dickie Cornish faces a vindictive murder rap from his past if he doesn’t agree to help prove that the fentanyl ravaging the streets of DC is bankrolled by shadowy donors of a certain former president. Broke and desperate, Cornish soon finds himself on a collision course with shady public defenders and corrupt police officers, forcing him to use his street connections to flip their plan. Or die.

“Streetwhys is more noir than any noir has any right to be. Dizzying. Raw. Chambers’ words pop off the page like hot rounds from a Saturday Night Special. Buckle up, buttercup.”—Tracy Clark, Anthony, Sue Grafton, Sara Paretsky and Lefty Award–winning author
