Dead Skip: `Raw reality. A tough, taut writer. Saves a gut-punch for the climax.` The Washington Post In the first book of Joe Gores`s razor-sharp Daniel Kearny Associates series, a DKA investigator clings to life after a devastating car crash. The police are ready to write it off as a drunk driving incident, but the DKA team knows it was an attempted homicide. Now they have seventy-two hours to search the backstreets of San Francisco and find the truth about the `accident` from a stripper, an embezzler, an ex-con, and other unsavory characters.

This new edition of Dead Skip features a bonus DKA short story, `File #2: Stakeout on Page Street.` `A traditional American crime novel, out of Black Mask, Hammett, and Chandler. . . . The Continental Op could do no more. . . .

''A thriller in the best Hammett/Chandler tradition . . . Mr. Gores, as always, writes beautifully, with never a wasted word and with a fine feeling for characterization.'' — The New York Times Due to an ''irregular'' case handled by a now-deceased agent, the State of California is hell-bent on revoking Dan Kearny's private investigator's license. What began as a dispute over an insignificant sum has spiraled into maelstrom of deception, conspiracy, and violence, launching Kearny and his associates on a cross-country search for witnesses who can clear the company's name. Before long they discover others following in their footsteps — with deadly intent. This new edition of the third book in Joe Gores's DKA File series includes a bonus DKA short story, ''File #7: O Black and Unknown Bard.'' Joe Gores (1931–2011) won Edgar Awards in three separate categories: Best First Novel, Best Short Story, and Best TV Series Segment.
