James Fisher taught his students to question authority, much to the chagrin of his principal. He loved his wife, but his marriage was failing. His life was a bubble in search of a pin. After his bubble burst, he moved to a backwoods town, content to waste away. He was awakened from his apathy by a small girl with a big problem. It was safer to look the other way. Getting involved would place James squarely in the crosshairs of the local police. He was afraid, but he did it anyway.

Publisher's summary
Bobby Palumbo is a low-level bagman for the Brooklyn mob. After he is persuaded to "borrow" $200,000 from his collection bag for 24 hours, he is left on the hook for the missing money. On the run, he hooks up with Frannie Jo Overby, a savvy young girl from the dying Texas town of Ecstasy. Bobby is largely clueless, and it's Frannie Jo who turns out to have the street smarts. She's the one who cooks up the scheme to save Bobby's bacon.
Ecstasy is a fun romp by Steve Marshall, who was a writer and producer for the television classic WKRP in Cincinnati. He also co-wrote the comedy perennial Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise. His other novels include The Johnson Blues and In Larry's Name, Amen, which is also available in audiobook form.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

If you've never read a Repairman Jack novel, this is the place to begin. It's 1990. A twenty-one-year-old named Jack has dropped out of college, leaving his old life behind to build a new one in New York City. Manhattan's rough edges are jagged enough to shred any unwary newcomer, but perhaps not one who is determined to stay off the grid, at any cost, in the busiest metropolis on earth. And to do so, he'll have to take jobs of a less than legal nature.

In many ways Iceberg Slim's most mature fictional work, Shetani's Sister relates, in taut, evocative vernacular torn straight from the street corner, the deadly duel between two complex antiheroes: Sergeant Russell Rucker, an LAPD vice detective attempting to clean up street prostitution and police corruption, and Shetani (Swahili for Satan), a veteran master pimp who controls his stable of whores with violence and daily doses of heroin.
