Law enforcement around the world have put a strangle-hold on the cocaine industry. As a result, drastic changes in the potency and physical properties of the cocaine available in the eastern Canadian market have occurred over the past 25+ years. Not only have there been changes to the drug itself, but these changes have also resulted in transformation of the behaviour of users and the areas of Toronto (and other major world cities) affected by cocaine trafficking and use. The bottom line? The cocaine available today is measurably less potent and of a far lesser quality than that available in the past. And this deterioration is only going to continue, as global trends suggest that it will be next to impossible to produce cocaine of the same potency as 25 years ago, particularly due to the success and progress of law enforcement across the globe. Tommy Khoa Dang Lieu chronicles his experiences in the cocaine and drug trade, weaving a compelling argument that combines lived experience with hard data to paint a picture of the decline of the once-lucrative cocaine industry.

Handsome and single cop, Det. Lt. Michael "Mike" McBride, Jr. continues his on-again, off-again romance with the sophisticated redhead, Juliette Carolle. The drug war persists in the towns and on the high seas. After intercepting a cocaine shipment, earlier, the US Coast guard pursues a drug sub while the US Navy attempts to follow the cocaine trail to its South American source, with surprising and amusing results. Free, awaiting trial, drug king-pin, Joseph the Rat, carries on behind the scenes, making trouble in Mike's town. A date-rape, kidnapping, and two murdered witnesses keep Mike and his precinct busy. His martial arts skills come in handy and his dog, Lady, helps track and chase the bad guys.

Watched over and sheltered for the past year following excessive trauma, Brooke has changed in such a way that the person she once was vanished. Locking her bedroom door while she sleeps under the bed, bars over the window for security, and suffering panic attacks in confined or crowded spaces, she really has broken. Then, after a year, and to the relief of her foster parents, with counseling and careful observation, she may just be getting better. Then, preceding the point where she can just about function, Brooke meets Chase. And with him, she's getting dangerously close to becoming the girl she used to be, before she broke.

“A gripping literary thriller and an auspicious debut” set against the surreal excess of Las Vegas from the author of Carousel Court (George Pelecanos, author and award-winning writer/producer of The Wire). After attending college in New York, Chase returns to Vegas and is drawn into the lucrative but dangerous world of a teenage call-girl service with his childhood friend Michele, a beautiful Salvadoran immigrant with whom he shares a tragic past. Over the course of one extraordinary summer, they will confront the violence and emptiness at the heart of the city and their generation. At once stark and electrically atmospheric, horrifying and hopeful, The Delivery Man is an ambitious literary novel as well as a fast and absorbing page-turner—and a powerful indictment of a society in which personal responsibility has been abandoned, lust is increasingly mistaken for love, and innocence is an anachronism. “A dead-of-night story surehandedly told in a pared-down, teeth-bared style reminiscent of Joan Didion.” —Janet Fitch, New York Times–bestselling author of White Oleander “[A] brisk, bleak debut novel . . . offers unflinching glimpses at mores in free fall . . . searing . . . memorable . . . not for the faint of heart.” —The New York Times Book Review “McGinniss offers a fresh take on the seamy side of Vegas by focusing on the wasted lives of burned-out teens hooked on drugs and money.” —USA Today “It’s sex, drugs, and a slew of lost souls . . . engrossing . . . Could The Delivery Man be this decade’s Less Than Zero?” —Marie Claire “Grim, convincing, and compelling . . . The Delivery Man really delivers.” —The Washington Post

El narco. A monster. Un diablo. Jorge Hernandez had been called many things, and it always made him laugh. If there was one word that could be used to describe him, it would be untouchable. Corrupt politicians combined with his charming disposition had contributed to Jorges success, but it was often the underlying threats behind his handsome smile that sealed the deal. He was unstoppable. In Paige Nol, he had met his match. She was a woman as dangerous and sadistic as she was soft and gentle. The last thing he expected was to propose after an explosive first meeting, but the intense fire between them was as addictive as the thrill of violence and power. When some of his personal enemies turn up dead, Jorge shuffles his daughter into a Canadian school, deciding that things are getting a little too hot in Mexico; but does life ever slow down in this dark underground world? The devil is smooth like honey, but is heaven ever far away?
