Scoundrels: Tales of Greed, Money and Financial Crimes is an all-original e-book and print-on-demand anthology edited by Gp and features today’s bestselling and Edgar and Shamus award-winning writers including SJ Rozan, David Corbett, Brendan DuBois and Kelli Stanley, from the loquacious Down & Out Books.
In this arresting anthology you’ll read stories of gabbing grifters,
brokers hedging big bets for the big take, schemers working the long con for the sure money, used car salesman with golden dreams and dashed hopes, bent lawyers and their more bent clients, one percenters hustling for that last half-percent, kind-hearted killers and the lonely hearted who tell themselves
any lie as they double down for the long count.
Check out the official book trailer.
Read this excerpt of Bob Truluck’s the “Digital Dingus Four-Point-O” and get addicted:
The Show knew how it would play out, knew the lay. He’d been here before: Dinguses One-, Two- and Three-Point-0. Wondered had the Suits ever been in a sandbox like the one they were about to play in now. Doubtful, very doubtful.
The Show, affecting the Geek, slid in the bar, slid onto a barstool and ordered a Glenlivet, double on the rocks. Made the railtender grin pretty good. Then he informed the Show that’d be twenty-four bucks and change.
The Show, as the Show, would’ve put a lot of nothing on it and dropped something like: is that all?
Tonight he was the Geek. The Geek would never be so bold. Perpetually astounded –sure. Smooth — not in a million.
In his ear the Geek — the actual and factual Geek — said: “Easy, bro. I’d be acting impressed.”
The Show muttered: “Fuck you,” at the mic buried in his shirt, said, “Wow. I’ll just have the one then,” to the Tender.
