And he’s decided what he wants to do with his life: Become a private investigator, for real. Licensed and everything. No more working as a thug for hire.

Feinfühlig wie eine Abrissbirne macht sich Ash auf die Jagd nach dem Mörder und verwickelt sich dabei in die Machtkämpfe der New Yorker Hipster-Unterwelt.
