A very noirish novel, set in what was then (and still is) a very plausible near future when it was published in 2010 but is now more than ten years in the past. More than half centered on the cops, with some large mob-type figures lurking and looming. There's some good turns of phrase here, and I'll never think of the Muppets' "Mana Mana" song quite the same way again.
