{"product_id":"everybody-pays-andrew-vachss-9780375707438","title":"Everybody Pays: Stories","description":"A hit man defies the confines of a life sentence to avenge his sister's batterer. An immaculately dressed man hires a street gang to extract his daughter from a Central American prison, for reasons as mysterious as they are deadly. A two-bit graffiti artist with a taste for Nazi-ganda finds himself face-to-face with three punks out to make a mark of their own--literally--with a tattoo needle. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom neo-noir master Andrew Vachss comes \u003ci\u003eEverybody Pays\u003c\/i\u003e, 38 white-knuckle rides into a netherworld of pederasts and prostitutes, stick-up kids and fall guys--where private codes of crime and punishment pulsate beneath a surface system of law and order, and our moral compass spins frighteningly out of control. Here is the street-grit prose that has earned Vachss comparisons to Chandler, Cain, and Hammett--and the ingenious plot twists that transform the double-cross into an expression of retribution, the dark deed into a thing of beauty. Electrifying and enigmatic, \u003ci\u003eEverybody Pays\u003c\/i\u003e is a sojourn into the nature of evil itself--a trip made all the more frightening by its proximity to our front doorstep.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Andrew Vachss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0375707433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780375707438\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage Crime\/Black Lizard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/07\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.08h x 5.28w x 0.92d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/13\/1999 pg. 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/1999 pg. 1351\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/1999 pg. 239\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/19\/1999 pg. 22","brand":"Andrew Vachss","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43919614378239,"sku":"9780375707438","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_865d3379-049b-4e5f-91ef-9e3e8f77725a.jpg?v=1680810368","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/everybody-pays-andrew-vachss-9780375707438","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
