Another in the Peter Macklin series by Loren Estleman. Macklin has married and ostensibly retired, but he makes the mistake of taking his honeymoon in L.A. where a former adversary and crime boss forces him to take on another hit.I really liked some of the comments that Estleman throws in by way of his characters. "He didn't buy into the romance of the soiled dove. They were walking petri dishes of communicable disease, needle-pierced and pimple-faced, with hearts made of solid shit. Even the high-priced ones didn't have much in common with Miss Kitty [if you get this allusion, you will be dated instantly:]. They could just afford a better grade of heroin."
