“The best street novel I ever read until now was Little Caesar . The Jones Men exceeds it in importance. The Jones Men is a work of art. ―Richard Condon, author of The Manchurian Candidate This streetwise novel chronicles the rise and fall of Lonnie Jack, a twenty-six-year-old Vietnam veteran and mid-level heroin dealer itching to knock the powerful Willis McDaniel off his perch as the number-one drug kingpin. It plunges the reader into the subculture of addicts, dealers, and corrupt cops as Lonnie Jack's bold and methodical challenge builds to a frightening climax.
