Patrick Hoffman's Crime Fiction Masterpiece: The White Van and Every Man a Menace

In the captivating world of crime fiction, Patrick Hoffman burst onto the scene with his debut novel, The White Van. Set in the back streets of San Francisco, this thrilling mystery was hailed as a Wall Street Journal's best mystery of the year and was shortlisted for the prestigious CWA Ian Fleming Steel Dagger Award. Now, Hoffman returns with his highly anticipated second novel, Every Man a Menace.

San Francisco is about to witness the largest delivery of MDMA to hit the West Coast in years. Raymond Gaspar, freshly released from prison, is sent to the city by his boss, still incarcerated on the inside, to oversee the increasingly erratic dealer responsible for distribution. Meanwhile, in Miami, the man responsible for shipping the drugs from Southeast Asia to the Bay Area has just encountered the woman of his dreams—a woman who seems to have a tangled web of secrets. Thousands of miles away, in Bangkok, someone farther up the supply chain, a former conscript of the Israeli army, is about to make a phone call that will jeopardize the lives of everyone involved.

Every Man a Menace spans from the Golden Triangle of Southeast Asia to the Golden Gate of San Francisco, offering an unflinching account of the intricate process of making, moving, and selling the drug known as Molly—pure happiness sold by the brick, brought to market through bloodshed and betrayal.

With his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to create complex, multi-dimensional characters, Patrick Hoffman has once again delivered a gripping crime fiction masterpiece that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page. Prepare to be immersed in a world of danger, deception, and redemption as Every Man a Menace takes you on a thrilling journey through the dark underbelly of the drug trade.
