Advance Praise forDope Thief "Dope Thiefis first-rate literary noir, the hardest core crime novel I've read this year. It manages to be funny without ever descending into the trivial, and at its core it's harrowing. An amazingly assured debut by Dennis Tafoya, a writer I know I'll be following for years to come." ---Scott Phillips, author ofCottonwood "Dope Thiefis one of those first novels that scream for us to pay attention to an important new voice in crime fiction. Dennis Tafoya writes a fast, quirky, and thoroughly twisted tale of corruption, heroism, and redemption that will leave its mark on you." ---Jonathan Maberry, multiple Bram Stoker Award--winning author ofPatient Zero, Advance Praise for Dope Thief " Dope Thief is first-rate literary noir, the hardest core crime novel I've read this year.

Synopsis
Ray and Manny, two friends from juvie almost 20 years ago, have a great scam running: with a couple of fake badges and some DEA windbreakers they found at a secondhand store, they target small-time drug dealers, pose as federal agents, confiscate the money and the drugs, and disappear before anyone is the wiser., Ray and his best friend, Manny, close ever since they met in juvie almost twenty years ago, have a great scam going: With a couple of fake badges and some DEA windbreakers they found at a secondhand store, they pose as federal agents and rip off small-time drug dealers, taking their money and drugs and disappearing before anyone is the wiser. It's the perfect sting: the dealers they target are too small to look for revenge and too guilty to call the police, nobody has to die, nobody innocent gets hurt, and Ray and Manny score plenty. But it can't last forever. Eventually, they choose the wrong mark and walk out with hundreds of thousands of dollars, and a heavy hitter, who is more than willing to kill to get his money back, is coming after them. Now Ray couldn't care less about the score. He wants out---out of the scam, out of a life he feels like he never chose. Whether the victim of his latest job---not to mention his partner---will let him is another question entirely. Dennis Tafoya brings a rich, passionate, and accomplished new voice to the explosive story of a small-time crook with everything to lose in Dope Thief , his outstanding hardboiled debut.
