520			_a"Sixty-four-year-old Joe has known violence his entire life. For forty years, he's worked as an enforcer for loan shark and close friend Maxie Smith, breaking more than a few bones along the way. But that relationship unravels when Joe shows signs of early-stage dementia and Maxie abruptly fires him. Joe is shattered, abandoned by a man he once considered his brother. To keep his head above water, he begins to operate a food truck that's barely getting by. Desperate to regain some purpose in his life, Joe makes a life-altering decision: he's going to take down Maxie Smith by any means necessary. However, his plan of revenge is sidelined when he meets twenty-two-year-old Paula Jessup, a wise-cracking amateur detective with a few scheming cards up her sleeve, who's on the run from a trafficking ring she's been investigating. The two form an unlikely bond: Paula needs some protection and she has a better suggestion for Joe: Instead of killing Maxie, why not ruin him? With the stakes running high and the clock ticking down -- will this gamble pay off?"-- Book jacket.
